    Prep: Hot shower w/ Grandpa's Pine Tar
    Soap: Arko
    Brush: Omega 13522
    Razor: '46-'50 Gillette Heavy Gold Tech
    Blade: Astra SP

    Yawn. Same as yesterday except I went 2 passes, WTG & XTG, to save time and to avoid my sensitive skin issues. I probably should have joined the 30 Day Rule/Focus thread this month since I more or less only changed blades this month.

    Star 1912 style razor
    Gem stainless blade
    Modern Williams SS
    Plisson/L'Occitane brush
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel/Sage mix
    Pinaud Clubman A/S

    Another dandy shave from the Gem stainless blade. Reckon I have to admit that they work well for me now and expand my blade choices. That's a good thing.

    Great 3 pass work morning shave. Soap Commander as usual provided a great lather with more than enough cushion and slickness. Nearing the end of this giant tub of soap.

    Thanks Celestino. I can't connect to our other forum to let you know I had some difficulty getting out of the house to send those P74 s to you but they are hitting the mail today. Sorry for the delay but you'll forget all about that once you start using them. Some people have a rocky start with them but if you do, try to push thru two or three uses and everything should smooth out and you'll be ridin' the wind of the legend my friend and becoming another member of our secret order.

    How do you like the Myrsol F? Could you describe the scent, or compare it to other Myrsols?
