Another good shave with the Tech. Looks like my worry about these blades was 'much ado about nothing'. Some of you probably remember my rant from a few days ago about my PermaSharp Super order that wasn't as advertised. Whether or not these blades are truly PermaSharp Supers or not, they work just fine and are performers in line with other Stainless Gillette St Petes products. 4 smooth days, and I'll go one more with them, just for Science.
After a full month of Jeeves products, I'd say the Cherry Blossom is my least favourite scent out of all those I have in either soap, splash or both. This combo came in one of trades/pifs back and forth with John
@Screwtape and I. The usual Jeeves quality of lather with a scent that I just don't gravitate to, especially in comparison to the other Jeeves scents I have.
On another note, I spent a few hours on my lathe this past weekend and made a few more brushes. Made a few Beehives for the first time, in two slightly different shapes and styles. Put a big Omega in one of them and will use it tomorrow:
