Arko Adjustable April

April 23

Razor - Schick Injector (M) (Wide open)
Blade -
Soap - Arko
Brush - Jayaruh #54
Post - Alum

Third shave with the Schick "M" and it was smooth as silk and the best of the three. I tend to get better with each shave when I go back to the Schick Injectors. Takes a bit to settle back in. And, then of course, I tend to wander off again, which I will do again this time. That completes the tour of my adjustables for the month with a week to go so I'll either double back on one or two of them or find something else interesting to finish April. Whatever the razor, it will be Arko. I haven't skipped a day yet, so I'm not going to let the last week do me in.

A week left until MAYhem!!! One of our most "celebrated" months in years past though I fear we may have fun past the limit of sanity and intelligence. Still, it's the month when we throw caution to the wind and try crazy and innovative things. We've seen some real classics. Blades taped to fingers, razors made out of all kinds of things that were never meant to be razors........all to demonstrate that technique trumps tools. I must give the normal disclaimer - for those who are going to perform the wild and wooly MAYhem type shaves - neither the 30 DC nor The Shave Den recommends using any sharp objects in a way other than they were designed. We do not encourage anyone to do anything that would be inherently dangerous or foolhardy. Now that I've said it - it's up to you. My MAYhem this year will probably be tamer than in the past and centered more on the "mix and match" dynamic than anything over the top. I should have that cheap Chinese pain stick and blades in by then, though, so I'm sure those blades will get a go.

Thanks in advance for another great and busy month around here! We're over 6000 with a week to go and you guys never shut up. But, then, what would be the fun in that, eh? Have a great Wednesday!

Well, we know ONE thing he reported-giving Fuzzy credit for Williams.

 

Very Nice Robert.

 

Excellent shave and post Terry.

 

Great shave Neal.
The injectors do handle a bit differently to me, but a nice change.

Not sure who started it, but Fuzzy keeps the Willaims faith going.

I am thinking of getting a can of air to blow out the hard to dry places like FB's and Slims. My hard water is devilish on things.

I also find this soap requires me to add water much more slowly than other soaps.
