  1. Technically.....I'm not using an electric kettle. We've had for a good number of years a 5 gallon water cooler/heater like found in many offices. Bought back when the girls were doing almost daily soccer practices, and wanted cold water in TX 8 months a year heat. Soccer long since traded for band activities. Heater nozzle works great for brewing tea, hot chocolate, and now the scuttle :bounce015:.

  2. SOTD January 21, 2020

    Prep: Cold water and PAA Cube pre-shave soap
    Blade: Schick Proline
    Razor: RazoRock Hawk
    Brush: JR #377 badger
    Soap: Soap Commander Vision
    Post: Witch hazel, Soap Commander Vision aftershave

    Woefully behind on the thread. Late morning post as work is quite busy today. Really nice shave this morning with this combo. Vision is a clean, bright, minty scent. Really nice and the longevity of the splash is very good. Nice way to start the day.

  17. Great kit and shave report, Tim! If we’re going to encourage you properly to enter Menthol land, you’ll need to consider at least 5 drops added to your soaps! Glad you’re enjoying Soap Commander. I’ve got a tub Of SC Honor laying around. I guess I’ll break it out tomorrow along with a different razor. Enjoy your day!

  20. If I recall, a trouble spot was the corner of the mouth.... on one side. Just wondering.

    I sport a 'short and tight' circle beard, so I lack experience shaving in these most difficult areas.

    My mustache has never been shaved.
