  1. Thanks, Keith!
    I got a 30% off code for Razor Emporium, started poking around their site and ended up with the Envoy.

  4. Thank you, Jim! It certainly was. Any time at this age is a special treat.

    Thank you, Joe!

  5. That’s a thought! It would probably add 20 minutes to the shave.

  10. Well, Joe, I seem to remember you thinking about ordering it! To tell you the truth it’s a bit much. @b1hart suggested adding a break between soap and AS. That would add 20 minutes at minimum to the shave. I’m an old retired guy and have the time, but I don’t know how practical this would be for our working members. I think it works as a weekend shave soap, but seems too overpowering to me for regular use. I prefer my MWF W/ 5-6 drops of M-Bomb.

  11. I hear you, but when I do something, then I am all in! That attitude helped me to venture into shavette shaving and then transitioning to straights. I would buy the Cryogen soap and AS right now, but it's winter time and this soap would be better for me in the springtime. Also, I really have more than enough soaps and aftershaves that it really would be a luxury.

    IMG_1892.jpg A very nice 3 pass shave earlier this morning left me quite smooth. Everything worked as it should, which is a very good thing considering what I think of the day's products. Even though it goes on feeling quite a bit different, the CL splash is very similar in face feel to the Maol product after 3 hours. Both are outstanding and, to me, quite DEcadent.
    This is the 7th consecutive shave that this soap has 4 shaves left on it...
    Have a great day all!
  14. Wonderful shave and picture, Jason!
