    RyX DoH!

    I found a tuck of VDH Ice Tempered. Don't recall purchasing them. Because of the reviews I've read they were one of the grocery/drug store blades I avoided. With better technique all blades get better, or even out. Shave the same? Something like that. Might give em a try just for Schlittz & Giggles.

    Hey Fuzzy @wchnu! Have you tried this pizza joint? I've see signs just east of the big bridge in Baton Rouge. Never slowed down to check it out. I'm expecting it's too close to the interstate and just a tourist trap. I'm not driving 2 hours for subpar pizza. They don't even offer anchovies. Too many Smokies on the ride home to enjoy a beer there.

    Another hotel shave today. I’ll run with the same combo tomorrow morning as well. An excellent, smooth 3 pass shave. Everything worked as it should, which is very good for sure. I definitely don’t pull this razor out enough.
    Have a great day tomorrow, all!

    Thank you, I did see that after I posted.

    A little too far for me to run over and crash the wedding.

    Rick, hate to break it to you, but any pizza not made in my neck of the woods is subpar pizza.

    Terrific shave, Jason! I am assuming you made the handle. It definitely is first rate.

    I won't argue with that. We have some decent pizza joints in our area but I am sure they cannot compare. What about Chicago pizza Joe?:duel:

    SOTD:
    Decided to finally retire the 7 o clock sharp edge after 20 perfect shaves, I used a voshkod for the first time today. Not the sharpest blade, but usually blades feel a lot sharper on the second shave but very very smooth nonetheless.

    Thanks to the warm weather here in South Africa, ive been able to switch back to aftershaves instead of balms like prep even though its still winter.

    Razor: Jagen David E01
    Blade: voshkod(1)
    Brush: Wilkinson sword classic shave
    Soap: col conk lime
    Aftershave: brut by Fabergé[​IMG]

    Paul, I'm sorry about the fall. I hope you are doing OK, my friend.

    I'd be willing to go out on a limb and say @Edison Carter spent a few years in Maryland.
