    Good to hear from you, Perry! I hope things slow down a bit after the move.

    Because it very well may be.
    We need to get together so I could give you this bottle. I would mail it but it needs to by kept upright. I'm surprised it didn't all leak out during shipping when I got it.

    RyX DoH!

    Doing the 100+ post catch up.
    It does Gary. The markings on my base plate do match the 15mm variation. My caliper isn't digital so I may have misread it. I saw Clint's @clint64 comments in that revived thread - do you still have and use your NEW Deluxe?
    Glad it shaves well for you Danny! They are beautifully engineered and something about holding a golden razor elevates the experience.

    EDRIO #80 Schick Injector N1
    Schick blade
    Jayaruh #352 (30mm, Cruiser Class)
    MWF
    Aqua Velva Ice Sport (Avon Bishop Decanter)

    Much much better shave today with a brand new Schick blade. I also pulled out The Fat for Fat Friday. Three passes and a bit of touch-up got me IBBS. Finished with AV Ice blue to make it a Just the basics June shave. Have a great weekend my friends!

    TGIF!

    Thanks Joe! He had a blast playing in the dirt. I mean, planting the garden.

    IMG_2281.jpg Another early morning shave, late afternoon post. I just haven't been a very consistent 30DC comrade the past while. Life is like that sometimes. Anyway, had another super shave with the Tech this morning. Today could have been a favourites focus shave as well- love the Baker Street scent, both in the Strop Shoppe unobtanium original (thanks again, Perry @PLAla ) and Stirling iterations. This brush has become a fave as well (I guess I say that about most brushes I own). Great lather, pretty good results, great scent and face feel. TGIF.
    I think I'll move on to another 'basic' razor- one of my humble Injectors for this next week.

    Have a great weekend all!

    RyX DoH!

    And being from Alabama that means...? Kidding, but you know us Southerners have a rep for keeping it in the family.
    I've found deconstruction rather than destruction early on makes for less work later. Sometimes getting a bigger hammer is not the answer.

    Yup, you wouldn't want the 3rd option... Congrats on 13,000 Brian! Keep 'em coming. I passed 5000 a little while ago without really realizing it.
