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

The Pechiko came from my son! SWMBO hasn’t a clue!

 

Thanks, Jeff.

The MWF puck is in pieces in the bottom of the bowl now but is still hanging on by its fingernails -- I think it will be closer to mid-June before I finish it off.

As for the Henson, I think this razor genuinely is one of the first real changes to DE razors since Gillette created the adjustable FatBoy. The precise machining creates narrow but very flat sides at exactly the right angle to let you lay the side flat against the face and have the blade perfectly positioned to shave. No "riding the cap" or "finding the sweet spot" needed. Anybody used to a cartridge razor can change over to the Henson Mild or Medium with almost no change in technique required!

Glad to hear the Chubby 3 is treating you well.

 

awesome Gary.many folks swear by the gillette old type.i have one ,but rarely use it.

 

awesome shaves and pic Jeff.w sell shapton stones at work.up to 30k..

 

thank you Jeff.fh stands for fat handle.fb stands for flat bottom in regards to the razor base plate design.when i say "post war" it usually means the standard baseplate every country used after 1950 based on the u.s version.

Greetings,

Early Morning Shave,

Final outing of the Schick I1 injector razor to finish my shaving week off on a high.

Both the Schick I1 & Japanese twin blade has provided me with consistently smooth acceptable close shaves with each shave ..The star of my shaving week has been the Schick Japanese Twin blades, they are amazingly good. In the future when i need more injector blades i'll be placing an order for both the Personna PTFE SS and Schick Japanese Twin blades too.. Very impressive blades the best Injector blades i've tried to date.

A comfortable enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups shave with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a few small dollops of Nivea Men Fresh Kick ASB....The Floid Mentally Vigorous & Nivea Men Fresh Kick ASB was a superb fresh cooling duo...I have a 400ml unopened bottle of Floid Mentolado Vigoroso ASL to keep me going for a good while yet.

My face is feeling smooth cool, & smelling divine.

Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

 

Yes, good synthetic stones. I have the older Kuromaku stones, not the Glass. I have 1.5, 5, and 8. I also have the Chosera 1k and 12k, and a Gokumyo 20k in addition to some naturals. Works for me!

 

Hi all!!
Another morning shave.
The razor found a small pimple on the back of my neck, I didn't know was there.
Not much blood, just a spot of leaking and a small pinch to let me know it was removed.



A good cool refreshing shave.

Enjoy

Awesome shave Terry! Pimpledectomies are a nuisance. Have a great Friday!

 

Terrific shaves Barry! Great setup and pic! Btw, I occassionly enjoy Earl Grey tea with moo juice and sugar. Have a great afternoon!

 

Joe... Have a great day as well my friend. Earl Grey tea with moo juice and sugar!.. Good God!..the very thought of drinking this putrid concoction,leaves a vile taste in my mouth. I would rather swim with crocodiles,than drink Earl Grey tea with moo juice and sugar.

 

Lol!

 

Wonderful Wednesday shave Joe! Have a great day!
