  7. No idea on the knot. I’ll use the brush the rest of this week and rotate to something else.

  11. Good menthol Monday morning.
    Got out my PAL adjustable and loaded it with a B-20. Got some Arko going and had a nice 2 pass shave on the mug with a little touch up, 2 passes on the gord to start the day. I will admit, this razor, like most injectors, likes a different plan of attack, compared to the other types of SE's. So it looks like I'm gonna have to practice with it to get the smooth 2 pass shave I've become a custom to. Liked the Stirling so much, I splashed it a second time.
    Nice.

    The PAL is on L, that's where the blade to safety bar gap is widest.
    To all
    Enjoy

    Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap
    Blade: Kai Captain Mild
    Razor: RazoRock Black Hawk
    Brush: Stirling Kong synthetic
    Soap: Soap Commander 13A▲
    Post: Witch hazel, Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill aftershave

    Easy shave after not shaving yesterday. The 13A▲ is still hanging on. The soap remnant is down to about the size of a nickel. One or two more shaves and it should be done. It's been a pleasure to use. Nice shave overall.

    Enjoy your day!

  14. Nice Jim
    That Blackhawk is an outstanding razor. If I had to choose only one razor, that one would be it if the blades weren't so pricey.
    Great picture too.

  15. Great shave, Terry! The PAL Adjustable certainly requires a different angle. I need to use mine some more as well.

  17. Nice, Terry! You'll have the PAL figured out in no time.
    Wonderful picture, Perry!
    Nearing the end of your soap!
    I have no idea what the bottom of a full size tub looks like in person. I've only seen pictures.

  20. Congrats Perry. You're coming down to the wire on the 13A▲. Maybe we can sit together at the Soap Commander Hall of Fame induction ceremony. Please don't try to upstage my acceptance speech with your HS band.

    Have a great week, my friend, and use plenty of sunscreen.
