    LOL. That's what happens when you think "Hmm...I'll be running out of blades soon. Oh, so many options! Let's explore the information super highway!" and it goes from that to "Well, here's my last blade, and I am still deciding if I want either that 100 pack of Astra's or Derby's" to "Oh snap, the last blade is dull!"

    One AD that I never really latched onto was acquiring blades. Soaps, razors, aftershaves, yes. Not so much blades.

    WEDNESDAY
    Smooth shave with probably my favorite razor in my collection— a $20 antique store restoration.
    This Wosty is one the few razors I use that hasn't drawn blood, despite countless shaves with it and the large square-point blade. I just love the weight and style of this blade. It just feels right in the hand.
    Have a great Hump Day, all!

    Used my newly re-knotted brush today.. TGN Finest Badger in an ER100. Very nice! Full of lather, held its shape as I worked it on my face, not floppy and good feel.

    I will admit, it is contradictory to use the Arctic Hydra and Bay Rum but one is felt during the shave and the other after the shave and into the day. Results are a DFS.

    I heard Glenn Beck Advertising "Shave Secret," on the Radio, yesterday. I use it, occasionally, w/very good results; if I let it 'soak-in,' for 15 min/more! I've also been dissatisfied with it, on occasion? Is there a consensus, herein, concerning Shave-Oil? I have made my own Shave Oil, too...with much the same results. I understand the VARIABLES....Razors...Blades; etc... But; I'd like to read of other's "Shave-Oil" experiences. (Or; is this ANOTHER "Here We Go Again" thread?):shocked029: One thing I've noticed: If, after using Shave-Oils, you don't 'wash your face' before applying After-shaves &/or Colognes...;the over-all 'lingering-affect' of the After-Shave lotions fades VERY fast! ( Well, maybe it's just ME!)

    TSD Wheat Shaving Cream
    Simpson 46 Best Badger
    Pre-war Gillette SS
    Personna Lab blade
    Mentholated Clubman AS

    My first go around with the TSD M Bomb. Only added one drop to my AS and it was enough menthol for me. The TSD Shaving Cream performed as expected, great. Not a big SC fan, but this provides plenty of lather and slickness. And it is fast to lather as well.

    I tried to Create an account & had to go, repeatedly, through SO many 'machinations' that my AGGRAVATIONS outweighed my desire for the product (which I truly wanted)! :signs131::scared007:
