    I have re-visited my LORD stock pile of blades lately, I seem to enjoy the Green - Classic pack a little better - seems to dig in a little deeper but still being smooth - not too mention the GREEN colored Tuck 5 &10 pack and wrappers have to be the coolest packaging for any blade - you cant go wrong with a friggin' sword - the inner 10 year old boy just loves it - but the LORD Green pack is my go to blade for aggressive razors and adjustables on high settings..

    Wie immer ein fantasisches Bild mein lieber!

    Ich wusste nie dass Du Menthol liebst. Auch wollte ich Dir fragen, ist die Mentholwirkung von dieses Balsam stark oder schwach? :)

    I used to have that large Clubman, but got too tired of it, only because of the size.

    Day 10 of 30 days of Henckel straights

    I used my Square Toe 7/8 Henckel 17 today. This is a nice razor. It seems to me that as I increase the size of the razor, the more willing it is to cut through whiskers. It is also I louder razor than the other Henckels.

    I got a really nice 2 pass shave today. I am liking the square toe for the ability to get into tight places, but I am a little wary of the square toe catching something and slicing it off. I did cut myself lightly in two places, but both had stopped bleeding before I was done shaving. Yes, after 40 days I am still cutting myself. But, the cuts keep getting lighter and less often, so I figure I am making progress.

    Had more time this morning. So went with a straight shave. Wasn't too bad, only one pass. Not the closest and a little irritation but I'm still satisfied with it.[​IMG]
