  7. The first soap to come out of the 'bid of disappointment' is Barrister and Man Reserve Spice. Since I adopted the same approach to shave as our famous tenor, @Primotenore , do not accept any soap that is less than excellent, I put the less the excellent in a drawer waiting for a second chance. This soap smells great but the performance was less than top notch. I worked like it owed me money and was avoiding my calls. The adage, it does not work load more.... worked! I got an excellent later today.

    My Suzuki Niles was the third JWest in a row, no idea why the blade looks that way in the pic, it is shiny in beautiful in real life. It has a sharp smooth edge and the shave today was excellent.

  17. Good mornin' everyone, seems I've made a new handle wit' a wee bit o' fussin'. I had an ole Bic tossin razor that I hacked it off o' 'n attached it t' me Schick B8 shavin' tool. Some scallywags reckon that's a bit t' far, me, I reckon it works great. Me beauty thought 'twas a good way t' make me's a handle.
    Some proper slath 'n a cheap swaber, leads me t' belive-in I'll keep it, jus' as ot be!
    I named it, me scalawag handle, for good form.
