    Thank you Jim.

    Thank you Evan. I think the weight is part of my issue as well. I have gotten used to it shaving but today, I needed to realize I can't swing it around like a toy. It cuts when it lands.

    Thank you Perry.

    Beautiful shave and photo Perry. The weather was better here today. Hope it was for you as well.

    Wonderful report and photo Joseph. The lather shot is fantastic.

    Fantastic shave report and lineup Jeff.

    It's a near toss-up between Voskhod and Sharp Star. I'd rate the Moscow Russians (Mostogleshmosh) like this. Well, top 5 anyway.

    1a. Voskhod
    1b. Sharp Star
    2. Rapira Platinum Lux
    3. Rapira Super Stainless (pink)
    4. Ladas
    5. Rapira Chrome

    As for the St. Pete's blades (Gillette)

    1. Gillette Silver Blue
    2. Gillette Platinum
    3. Astra SP
    4. Nacet
    5. Gillette 7 O'clock SharpEdge (Yellow)

    Thank you Joe. It has certainly been a day.

    Thank you Jim.

    Very true Jeff. I am getting there.

    Thank you Charlie. I am glad you guys had a wonderful trip and a safe return.

    Thank you Gary.

    Thank you Tim.

    I have to remind myself that heavier razors have more momentum.

    Thank you Andrew.

    Gorgeous photo and lineup Jim. The Rocnel looks fantastic.

    Wow. Love the brush and the warm tones of the photo Jason.

    Simply gorgeous Amigo.

    Beautiful outdoor photo and lineup Gary.


    Simply beautiful Danny. Hope you're doing well,

    Fantastic photo and lineup Jim. I bet the Parker was a big difference from the CH2 Synthetic.

    Looking good Angelo. Love the TOBS Sandalwood.

    Great looking have Tim. At least there was no blood which is better than I could say for my shave.

    My wife and I found a dive taco joint near us. Counter service with a limited menu but oh so good. Had the shredded beef tacos over the weekend.

    @jgreenepa I am happy to hear the finger is healing with no surgery required. Just take care.

    I am surprised Polsilvers didn't hit your Russian top five. I happen to think they are a nice blade. I like the Voshkods better than the Polsilvers.

    Just a beautiful photo and shave Evan. The bowl and brush looks great together. Have fun on the camping trip. Sounds like fun.

    Thanks! It is an awesome bowl. Jason @jtspartan made it for me. Trust me. He did a much better job than I would have.

    Now, I have to ask...between the Voskhod and the Gillette Silver Blue...do you have a favorite?

    Thank you, Clint.
    Oh yeah, big difference. Went from my stiffest brush to my floppiest.

    Thank you, Clint! Much better weather today. Warm...in fact we’re on the screened-in porch enjoying it. More storms on the way overnight.

    Swati and I just finished dinner. We both had a long day today. I admit I am getting a little tired of the rain all the time.
