March 7, 2023 Feather AS-D2 Feather Mondial Boar Mitchell’s Wool Fat Speick After Shave Happy Tuesday. Early morning shave with an early evening post. This very easily could be my favorite lineup period. Everything just flat works for me. If I do my part, I don't think I could find better tools to work with. I hope everyone has a great day.
March 8, 2023 Karve D Plate Feather Semogue Torga C5 Boar Mitchell’s Wool Fat Speick After Shave Another early morning shave with a mid afternoon post. This little boar punches well above its price point. Now that the brush is broken in it is a pleasure to use producing lather with ease. The MWF is a bit of good news and bad news. The good news is that I have used 35 grams of soap. The bad news is that I have 90 grams of soap remaining. I just hope I have this finished before summer vacation. While I like the container, I do find it a bit narrow. I might transfer the soap to a bigger bowl to make loading and lathering easier.
Charlie, can you remember the fellow who loved Karve Razors and did some Stoylin videos? Travelled a lot, as I recall.
March 9, 2023 Feather AS-D2 Feather Mondial Boar Mitchell’s Wool Fat Speick After Shave Happy Friday Eve! I am up and moving way too early for me. At least I managed to get in a good shave to start the day.
I did move the soap to a larger diameter bowl. The lather this morning was just phenomenal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Applications are being accepted for participants in a research study comparing Fast 'n loose and Goldilocks lathering methods. It has been a challenge recruiting a statistically significant number of novice shavers to properly evaluate the Fast 'n loose methodology. Nevertheless, the quest to advance shaving science continues.
I commented on this "Fast N Loose"methodology and someone wondered what I was talkinabout. I had to do a "Fast n Loose Take 2". I'm not familiar with Goldilocks.
Yup. All jokes aside (strange coming from me, I know…), novice shavers often make the mistake of not taking ‘didn’t load enough product’ out of the lather making equation.
I gave this some thought…if I was only allowed to keep 5 razors (completely unnecessary, I realize), the Karve with a D plate is on that list. The only modern DE actually. Along with a SS Supply with the 2 dot plate, a Gillette NEW LC, a Cooper MonoBilt and a Barbasol Floating Head. The FH isn’t a daily driver for me like the other 4, though.
