  4. I’ve been on a Stirling citrus kick. Yesterday’s shave was with a 13/16 Le Jaguar and Stirling coconut lime lathered with a Simpsons PJ3 Super. Today’s shave was with a Gauthier Pont St Esprit French rattler, ~13/16 and Stirling grapefruit lathered with a Simpsons 59. Lucky Tiger’s brief orange scent complimented the soap’s scents. Happy New Year’s Eve gentlemen.

  5. I like this razor but I want to like it more. Normally I have new razors honed by Glen @gssixgun but this one was honed well from the seller. I have another from him. Shaves well but I tend to like my blades sharper than most. It left me feeling not quite smooth enough but an hour later it seems to be a closer shave than what I recall. :signs002:
