Great shave.

One of the fellas over in honing uses kapton tape. The reasoning is that it is a good deal thinner than the normally used black electrical tape. It keeps the angle more acute.

Wish I was better at honing than I am.

Great shave with this equipment. The brush and soap worked together to whip up an amazing lather. This soap is out of sight. The toad stuck around for the picture.
I took a bit of a fall while looking for a golf ball that didn't go where I expected. I hit my head on a rock as my foot slipped as I climbed an embankment. Not to worry the rock is okay.

I think Barbershop will be my first Stoylin Body Wash order....could work with the Central Texas Soaps Grandpa's Barbershop followed as always by Clubman Original A.S. That way I could stretch it out for months(the Bodywash). Oh, and how can I forget the Clubman Shave Cream-working that in with a few choices for A.S(all of the Clubman variety). . Good, I just made more use for the Bodywash .

Yes...well, let me begin by enabling myself to get a nice Central Texas Soaps package next month-the many times aforementioned Weekend Rodeo shave soap&A.S., and a Clean Shave handsoap.

Whether using a shavette or a straight razor, the ATG pass of the jawline and neck is the most difficult. I start from my ear going to my chin with the toe facing down. This maneuver may seem uncomfortable, but it becomes second nature and you get a BBS on the neck and jawline.

Beautiful picture, Doug!
Glad to hear the rock is ok!

Wow, bummer on the fall.

For me, I would say "good thing I landed on my head".

In my golfing days, (I was never good) my brother once got me into the TPC course at Sawgrass for a round. You weren't gonna see me looking for errant shots there. If I'm gonna be inside an alligator, I want it to be boots.

Very nice Terry. I hope you are able to get some rest today.

Nice shave, Terry!

Sounds like a great morning Patrick. Take care.

Excellent setup, Doug! Sorry to hear about your fall. Take it easy.

Nice setups and shaves, Patrick! Sounds like a fantastic day.

I have done that move exactly like that successfully, but I have never been as comfortable with it as I need to be for a routine change.

Besides, being the 'class clown' I am prone to cheat. All them safety razors sitting right there just calling me to use them on that 'one last swipe' is sometimes hard to resist.

Do I get detention hall again? After all I fessed up.

Thank you Edison.

Thank you Perry. New low profile golf shoes. Very comfortable but not good for traction.

Wonderful shave and photo Doug. The F&C Shambala is a fantastic aftershave. Sorry about the fall Doug.

I am moving pretty slow this morning. I barely got in the shower and shave before noon. The Rudy Very Briar was the first custom brush I ordered and is still one of my favorites. The Shavemac finest loaded and lathered the Stuga Lemon Myrtle with ease. Three passes and touch ups had the baby in range. I decided to relather my neck and go for a 4th pass which caught the little guy with ease. A splash of the Myrsol Limon left me clean shaven and smelling great. I hope everyone has a great Sunday.

Clint. You are right as rain Amigo. The Folsom & Co. Shambala is outstanding! Just happy I didn't hurt the rock.

I am glad you're ok.
