  1. I remember seeing that, and being impressed with such a simple yet effective solution--amazing how context can change the outcome on just about anything :D

  5. Thanks, Jason! 12 hours after the shave, I found myself wondering if I would need to shave today. It was actually a very close shave... just not a very comfortable one. :happy102:

  7. Thank you, Patrick!

  8. Indeed it was, Joseph. It's amazing the gamut of meaning that one word, 'interesting', can run ;)

    2nd use of ‘Combo#2’ for Fave Feb. Realized as I was shaving that I didn’t take a pic of the gear last night, so is a recycled shot from last week.
    Had a very nice 3 pass shave this morning. The lather was top notch, and of course my thoughts on the scent are well documented. A little short of perfect on my neck, but more than acceptable.
    Have a great day all!
  10. awesome blue shave and pic Jim ,good morning..
  11. fine shave Terry..
  12. Thanks, Jeff! The most difficult part of getting the 2nd blade in is getting the blade-end to fit in the catches (but I often struggle with that with just one blade). The top of my Ever Ready snapped down on the pair with no problems at all--would that were not the case, though :ashamed001:

  19. What do I do
    For a Monday Shave?
    Oh, I know the answer
    I'll use Burma Shave......

    BURMA SHAVE.

    All right, I'll lose the corniness. Funny thing about these cake soaps is I find it hard to really appreciate them, but they do the job well. It spread well over the face and neck. No cuts/weepers, and I can't deny that's a good feeling. I wasn't pleased with my loading for pass #1, so I loaded a little more for #2. Aqua Velva Musk was a nice closer. Fine shave overall.
  20. Thanks, Clint! They might not. Jeff's won't accept a 2nd blade, but mine will--kind of makes me wonder what's going on with my Ever Ready :signs002:

    Still, when I load it properly, I get a great shave from it. :D
