    Nice shave, Aaron! At what stage in the shave process do you take the picture? I'm looking at your brush and wondering about the lather. Are you done with shaving once you've taken the picture?

    Wonderful shave and photo, Joseph! We must do all we can to remember those we sacrificed all for us.

    Great picture, Brian! Have a safe trip home.

    Thank you, Jason!

    Thanks very much Perry. I don't use creams very much so I'll have to do a focus.

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    Well I considered it good news. LOL Actually he made it a quick check up. My blood pressure is the best it's been in several years. My sugar - needs work but always will. We skipped the blood work since I have had lots of other things going on the past couple of months with my Mom's death and estate settlement and all that. I'm adding a Fitbit to my arsenal to help me track exercise so I'm more consistent. Diet needs work, but I'm trying. Old restaurant managers are the toughest to get on a healthy diet. We know how to make everything taste better with fat.

    Overall, though, I'm expected to survive awhile longer. Can't argue with that.

    I’m a little late to posting this one. I’m even further behind trying to catch up this month. It was a very smooth and enjoyable shave C6222801-490C-41BE-832B-B77CE8598279.jpeg

    A very good post, Joseph.
    Did you get any takers on your blade swap?
    Very nice combo, Doug. Are those 7 O'clock SPs the blue pack from Russia, or the black pack from India? I've only tried the Russians.
    Interesting. The Cream seems to be quite a bit pricier than their soaps on first glance.
    I just got the Platinum in a soap. First time I've tried any of the Creed Aventus dupes.

    Thank you, Gentlemen. Doug- I really like these blades, but I'm probably a little biased as I haven't found a high end St. Petes Gillette that I don't like.

    These blades are made in Russia under license from the Gillette Company in Boston.

    How can you even attempt to top this setup, Neal?
    Georgeous shot, Clint!
    Very nice, Perry!
    Jim that brush and razor are gorgeous!
    Nice setup, John!
    Excellent photo, Mark!
    Keep at it Aaron! Though as Chis @Bama Samurai once said, you can lather automatic transmission fluid with a good synthetic!
    MonoBilt Love!!!!
    Fantastic photo, Joseph! Curious to hear what Mrs. Primo said!
    Love the PRC straights, Brian!
    Awesome shot Doug! I might get slapped if I gave my wife cash though...
    That seems quite expensive for a tube of shaving cream. :shocked002:
