1. Great Kit...I'd be happy traveling with that!! Or not traveling, I'd swing with that set-up...:cool:...
  2. Rolls Razor (Thanks Greg!)

    Rooney 3/2 Super
    Ingram SC

    Alum
    AV Ice Blue Classic

    It's been a long while since I used the Rolls. Switching to night shaving since I leave too darn early gives me the chance to take my time and enjoy my shaves. Tonight was excellent. The Rolls performed well. I am growing to enjoy the Rooney. I'm glad I didn't do anything stoopid like pull the knot. Even the AV wasn't too bad. It's far from my favorite, but it didn't make me wretch like the last time I used it.
  3. Lilac Vegetal makes me nauseous, so I know where you come from. :)
  4. Bob, that's a sick decanter!

    • Thats just not any Eversharp Schick, my friend...Thats the "one of a kind" "G-8" from 1953-54...I've always loved the handle on that one...It's unigue, Very Classy, and just plain Beautiful...My Uncle had one of those when I was growing up...After my Dad's I2, that one is my favorite. Also that one is a little more exclusive....:cool:

    -Arko Shave Stick/Arko Max.Comf.SC
    -Arko Aqua AS/Arko Nem moisturizer

    Just like yesterday, after first pass I had a deffinite DFS...So I did a touch-pass from Bottom Lip down thru both sides of my Adam's Apple...
    Should have done that yesterday...Today I'm smooth, close, and irritation free...:happy108

    Thats maybe the only problem I have with this injector...It gives me DFS in one easy pass...I still have enough lather in my brush for 3 men and a French Poodle. :eek: She's too easy, if thats possible...Sometimes I enjoy doing my normal 3 passes and touch up, like with a DE... But if I force it and do that with this Schick, then like yesterday the shave is TOO close...:ashamed001

    But...This Schick does give an effortless close shave in 1 1/2, 2 passes Max. anytime, everytime, no prob...She very cool, and undeniably consistant...:cool:

  15. Wednesday, June 29th 2011

    Razor: A Rusty PILS
    Blade: Super Iridium
    Brush: H.L. Thater Stout 1
    Pre-Shave: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
    Soap: D.R. Harris Almond Shave Stick
    A/S: Mr. Taylor

    OK...I am getting progressively more annoyed by the fact that my "stainless" steel PILS is rusting. I am not sure what angers me more; that the razor is rusting or that PILS completely blows off emails. In any case, I did enjoy a fine shave and the Mr. Taylor was an excellent finish. I guess it is time to contact Razor Emporium for a re-plate job on the PILS.
  16. Wednesday:

    Razor - Goodfella
    Blade - Feather
    Brush - Vie-Long Silvertip
    Soap - Monsavon
    A/S - Agua Lavanda Puig
