Interesting to see the subtle differences, you would have to know what to look for
Were the differences by design to seek better performance or driven by marketing I wonder?

Thanks Gary

March 21 SOTM

Good morning.

1959 Gillette FatBoy (9)
Zorrik DE Blade ( 5 )
Rockwell Synthetic Brush
TSD Barbershoppe SS and AS
Stirling Alum Block
Beard Growth: 2.5 days



It's Fat Friday so it was obvious that I pick my FatBoy for this morning’s shave. Two error-free passes gave me a close, comfortable and smooth shave. Had minimal alum feedback. Splashed on the aftershave to top the shave. Off to see my primary care physician later this morning. Take care.

 

Great Friday shave Joe
I have yet to try a Fat Boy, but am happy with my Slims.
Hope you PCP visit turns out just fine Joe

Cool Canadian shave Gary.

 

Wonderful shave Joe. Congrats on sinking King of Oud.

 

I can smell that lemon across the pond. Great shave Barry.

 

Very nice shave Joe. Love the needling you gave me about the weather.

 

Great setup and shave Gary.

 

Awesome Australian shave Chris.

 

Thanks Chris. My doctor was pleased with my progress on my high blood pressure. Although it is still high, it was the lowest since I first started seeing him at the end of January. He prescribed another bp medication to take with my other one. My next appointment is in 4 weeks. Hopefully, it will get to the point where I will be able to get a medical clearance for my dental work within 2 to 3 months. I dropped 8 pounds since my first meeting with him. My goal is another 15 to 20 pounds. In any event, I am going to continue my strict diet. I have to take another blood test next month before I see him. I am hoping that my numbers improve. Don't need any more meds. Lol! Thanks for asking.

 

Thanks Gary.

 

Fabulous Friday shave Gary.
