Thank you. I'd bet the vast majority of all Blues and Rock n Roll guitarists have RJ as an influence. Classic
I've played with many guitar players and RJ's name comes up often, especially when learning a new song.
March 13, 2019 Supply Co SE – 2 dot plate Schick Proline Elite “Tres Amigos” Beehive with Envy White SV Felice Aromatica Shave Soap And Aftershave
Thank you Amigo. I find the 2 and 3 dot plates about the same in efficiency but the 2 dot plate is smoother.
So far have used the C plate open comb and next two days will be the D version with D safety bar scheduled for Friday shave. Will report back over the weekend. Initial impression was the C O/C very similar to D safety but want to verify this.
Mail call...finally a slant! The New Improved RR Wunderbar RazoRock Wunderbar Slant Razor on Super Knurl Stainless Handle / Vokshod PTFE Coated / Grizzly Bay Crucible / SV 70th While this was my first shave with a slant, and I am curious how flexible it is when it comes to harsher blades, pretty sure it is my favorite DE head, we'll see if it claims top den honors in time, I have others incoming that are also new. Regarding the razor, as one here commented on the Gen 1, the design and cap profile are super intuitive; when I try a new stick I tend to do short buffs until I'm dialed on the angle, did the same here but it was pretty needless, it sets nearly autopilot. The cap profile is a bit tall and while not as difficult as my Pils is in getting in close under my beak, the wunderbar does take a bit of technique/time in getting tight to the nostrils, but totally worth the minimal extra time spent there as it saves much time on my harder to shave neck/under chin area, true nick-free, two pass BBS burn-free.

SOTN Rockwell 6S(3) Feather blade (1) Stirling Finest Badger Musgo real glyce pre shave Summer Break Soaps 'Brain Break' Matching AS Two pass BBS. This was my smoothest shave yet, first time using the 3 plate, and decided to pair it with a feather blade. At first it feels like the razor is not even cutting, there is almost zero blade feel. No irritation or redness, which I usually get a bit of on my lower neck. Have a great night everyone
Not sure if you would have any luck on the BST but may be worth a shot. Have done a ton of trades this way.
SHAVE OF THE DAY Prep: pre shave soap mix Razor: Gillette Tech blade: Croma Diamat brush: Maggard 24mm Synthetic soap: Passionatly Natural- Frozen Earth post: SDP Blue Spruce Balm had a swell late night shave about an hour ago with Frozen Earth. Passionatly Natural is a artisan that rarely metentioned on the fourms but has a good ingredient list and performance to match. Most of the scents are on the natural side (obviously) and the 3 i have tried have all been true to their description. scent of Frozen Earth is a Earthy Vetiver with a perfect amount menthol, not enough to make you cry but still a healthy dose IMO. performance is very good and soap provides all the qualities one could ask for. Started off with more water than usual which was no problem, lather started off a bit bubbly but quickly thickened up to the right consistancy. This shave went beautifully and no irritation or nicks occured, skin is smooth and hydrated. Finished off with SDP Blue Spruce which feels wonderful and has a unique sweet woodsy kind of scent. Hope everyone is doing well and getting the best shaves possible! Shave music: The Pointer Sisters- Hot Together
