No shaves this weekend.

Excellent three pass shave this morning with the Snake Bite.

Happy Monday everyone!

Today's shave was a 9/10 as I used dial 4, but moved up to dial 5. Yes, going up in dial from 4--5 helped as I got a nearly a BBS shave, the next level up. Today was Personna USA 100 pack from 2017, day 13 topside/total. I do flip the blade over around 14--16 and count the flipped side amount with also a total overall. With this blade Feeling like it might be day 15 for the flip

I used, as always, my H 2 or 1962 Gillette Adjustable 1960's era shaver without the case.

I shaved before the shower, so I did need to use water on my face due to skipping a day. I kept the blade/head of shaver wet as needed doing a better job than the day I had the cuts. I did not need a partial clean about 2/3 into the shave at 90% on just the blade and did a final full clean at the end of the shave but did some touch up on the moustache before doing the last of the cleaning.

It's a Fine shave for a fine gentlemen.

You're getting bolder and having more confidence in going to level 5 Xasey.

Great shaves and reports, gents!

Joe, the Captain's Choice 45th Parallel sounds like it would be a nice product to try. If only I didn't already have about 20 years' worth of soap already stashed....

Yes, when it hits -30C and the wind starts blowing, I begin to imagine moving to somewhere warmer. But then I remember that we don't have hurricanes, typhoons, earthquakes, tidal waves or volcanoes here and that nobody has ever been bitten by a shark in Saskatchewan and that the deadliest venomous critters around here are occasional small rattlesnakes in an area about 400km south of where I live ... and suddenly a bit of mild cold doesn't seem such a bad trade-off...

Thanks, I even redid my moustache area wetting that down before shaving.

Wonderful shave Barry.

Wonderful shave this morning as we steadily try to deal with the snow pack and chill. Just right up Joe’s, @Trigger, alley.

Another fine three pass shave with the Gillette razor. Super smooth without any incidents.

Thank you Joe

Very nice shave Joe

cold but still nice shaves in your neck of the woods.

Thanks John. However, you should be glad that you don't have to buy any more soap.

Don't you still have to worry about bears?

Thanks Joe.

Delightful Dickens shave Joe. I shopped Saturday night so that I had food for the next couple of days. Stayed home all day Sunday and didn't leave my house until 12:40 this afternoon to play Pinochle at the Senior Citizens Center.

Thank you Joe.

Outstanding shave set up Joe. The Gillette slim twist was my first vintage DE razor kindly giving to me from a friend of my father. Pairs wonderfully with the GSB.
