    Happy Hump Day Everyone. The SV soap is very soft now and disappearing at a very good rate. I feel comfortable that I should be finished late this month or very early the next. It has been a long time since I have used the General. So long I had forgotten just how good this razor shaves. Just Wow. I hope everyone has a great day. Take Care. ​
  2. Well, Jason, I suspected this for a long time.

    When @Primotenore goes on (and on) about glue dots, he's referring to his Toupée. And I think he simply resents any strand of hair (in his boar brush or on someone else's head) that remains dark.

    That's the main reason I share Kent combs with @Paul Turner instead of Joseph.

    I hope he keeps a cool head and doesn't wig out when he reads these comments.

  5. i must admit glue dots are useful.the extra cleaning to remove the glue from the razor is quite beneficial.:)
  6. Course the question then becomes.....is it NECESSARY?
  7. if you like clean razors it is.:)

  10. That's a pretty clever one if you do say so myself :). I would say I am not there yet.
  11. Well, yes...but why do the gluing at all is what I mean.

  14. Thanks, Gary. And yes, a few of the blades I use are notorious for glue dots as well. Especially PermaSharps.
  15. Happy anniversary to you and your Bride, Jason! The 20th is a huge milestone.

    Happy Thursday Everyone. Little later start this morning. I decided to wait for some early morning thunderstorms to pass through. No real issues apart from its impact on the already bad commute in Atlanta. At least, I was able to get a great shave to start the day. This brush has some serious backbone and scrub. Perhaps more frequent use would loosen up the knot some. I hope everyone has a great day and take care. ​
  20. Thank you both.
