May 2022 30 Day Rule/Focus and Discussion. All Are Welcome!

thank you Jeff.my favorite one.

 

I already have things laid out. I may pick up the DX and do a pass on my cheeks. It is easier for me to switch hands with this one. I have the new Razorine "Flatboy" laid out with a Japanese Steel blade. Italian so, I will go with Proraso cream from a tube and the balm to finish. The Flatboy uses a steeper angle almost riding the cap. LOTS of feedback and you can really feel the blade. I did a test on my cheek. It's gonna become another favorite for sure! Pretty to look at with the stainless handle and solid brass head.

 

Both of my newest razors loaded up and ready for tomorrow! It's almost like Christmas Eve and I can't open my presents until tomorrow! (and I already know what they are!)

 

cool set up Gary..

 

I will be 67 next month and still feel quite youthful. The classroom kids and the gym keep me going.

 

I have a sauna in my gym. I don't use it because I don't like to be surrounded by half naked guys.

 

Nice Bergamot matchup with Don Marco and Clubman.

 

Yep(long long breath)-anglaise can be tricky.

 

It's not a sauna if they are only half naked.

But yeah, more seriously, I don't really care for public saunas either. The nudity doesn't bother me, because there is nothing sexual about it, but I just can't relax that well in a large group of people that I do not know.

 

I found it very refreshing as I remember, but wasn’t tempted to ever do it again.

 

It really is a great feeling! I get the same feeling when I’m preparing to use a razor I haven’t used in awhile.

 

It can. The grammar is simpler in a way, but for example Finnish doesn't have gendered pronouns. Then there is "a", "the", and other stuff like that, which does not exist in Finnish.

 

That's right Jeff....as they say, that was now, this is then.

 

What scent is that Proraso A.S.?(golden color)

Good evening!



Straight Razor Shave #364
10/8 Max Sprecher
Catie's Bubbles Tuxedo Brush
Arko SS
Old Spice AS
Maggard's Alum Block
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Beard Growth: 33 hrs

I decided to shave with Arko this evening because it is an easy, slick lather.
Max has never disappointed me and gave me an awesome 2 pass shave without any incidents. I can't say enough good things about Max. It was my 64th shave with it in almost 2 years and I still enjoy using this razor. I never had buyer's remorse with it.
Didn't get any any alum feedback. Witch hazel and the Old Spice topped this nice shave. Enjoy your evening.

 

Maybe a lot of Finnish NHL players say "Our goal has always been to make playoffs".

 

I like how the brush and blade are similar in color.

 

Great shave and a beautiful razor, Joe!

 

How do you compare the New Spice to Stoylin Spice? I know you're a fan of Doc Ezlovan's product.

 

There was this one Finnish Formula 1 driver, Mika Häkkinen, who always in interviews referred to one of his rivals as The Michael
