  1. Thanks, Clint. Wonderful shave for you as well. Hope you have a restful day!

    Thanks, Randy! I appreciate the sample and trying it out.

  3. Very nice @jluc

    FWIW, when I started on straights, I did only the easier passes and stuck to one or a partial of 1. Skipped it altogether if time was a factor.

    Things improve slowly and you get more comfortable as you develop your patterns.

    From my research, it was indicated that a straight is less difficult than a shavette. I salute!

  4. New rule this year. All razors will be confiscated at Cartel HQ and inspected before the first meeting. It's just to make sure all of them have been "legally imported" into Missouri. Natalia and Ivan will be handling confiscations/approvals.

  5. I heard "the food of the gods". Just saying.
  6. Thank you and thank you for the advice. The shavette may just be a weekend razor for a while.

    Now you got me wondering about it.
    I just got started using my strait every day (1st week in).
    But the price was WAY out of my league!
    Have to find a rent-a-razor :D

  16. I guess you need a vault to secure your shaving gear. Lol!

  19. Congrats on the progress! I may have to start on a Grape Nut breakfast regimen. I got an Aeropress for Christmas, so I have my cup of black coffee. Wonder how it works for looseleaf tea?
