    Killer!
    Haven't seen those exactly but I think no holes in the blade makes them carbon.
    I'm awaiting this round of blade trials with great anticipation! New bed, happy wife, lucky man!
    Excellent shave Patrick!
    Fantastic shave Rick! I believe PaP is seasonal and only available in the spring/summer.
    Epic shave!! Awesome Keith!
    I'm sure you will get it all squared away Adam. I would suggest if you haven't already done so, hire a lawer. At the very least have a consultation.
    Great shave, Gary!
    Nuff said!
    Awesome photo, Perry!
    Awesome photo, Jim! Congrats on becoming for familiar with the shavette!
    Great photo, Clint! Hope that irritation has subsided.
    Excellent photo, Joseph! I think I am on the verge of software purge of some of the stuff that I have that is just "good"

    Excellent report Joseph. I have the Krampert’s aftershave and like the scent. My problem is that the scent has no longevity at all. So far Captain’s Choice is my favorite Bay Rum aftershave.

    Drygulch supports this plan, and from what I understand is working on it as hard as possible.

    No need, my friend. I have already agreed with myself on the matter and counted to three. It is settled.

    That, and my powers of inference and deduction are well honed and legendary within a very (very) small (infinitesimal, really) but well-regarded segment of sphere of influence.

    We are trying to locate a local one who has no conflicts of interest with any of the contractors or suppliers that have worked on our house. That is proving to be harder than we thought. I'm sure we will get it sorted out. Thank you.

    It is a goal this year to practice elucidating with brevity. Alliteration was an unexpected bonus.

    Something I've forgotten to note in my last couple of shave reports that has been discussed recently is blade feel. I started off using the Rex set at 3 for my clean up. An easy comfortable shave. By the second day I had opened it all the way. When set at 3 I kept stopping to check the razor, it felt like something was wrong with it. Using the shavette has changed my perspective of blade feel in the six shaves I've done with it.
