For what started as Fat Boy Friday, morphed into Gillette Adjustable Friday, I'm thinking of changing the thread title to *Gillette* Adjustables!

I wonder if you spread it out thin (giving more surface area) it might dry quicker? There are two ingredients in creams that most hard soaps don't contain; water to prehydrate making easier lather, and preservatives because the water content may allow bacteria growth.
I'm curious about the Indian Old Spice products. Keep us informed!

Nice Barbershop combo

Thank you Paul! I don't have any made by the same company soap and AS sets, but this pair come close.

That's how I am with barbershop fragrances-it's Clubman A.S./Stirling Barbershop soap. So far as overall doubles, I just have one set(Stirling Spice).

I do believe it's a VC2

I received a couple of nicks with this setup but end result was bbs. I love the scent of this soap but it still burns a little especially around the lips.

Having a quiet day at home with my dog Max

Looks relaxed.

Thanks. Delta Echo custom cerakote on a Gillette Slim. Long wait for it, but well worth it for the final product!

Yes he does looks relaxed, but his ears is always on alert and he's too smart.

That looks like a Gillette Slim Lightsaber is the weapon of a Jedi

Thanks Tim! But you are the master KiT Builder!
