  1. Autocorrect gives me 2 options when I type in J. Today I tapped Jim instead of Joe I guess . Sorry Joe! And thanks for commenting on my shave post . I am enjoying the setup this month!

  4. Another mail call today. I got the B&M synthetic cooling drops to add to soaps and aftershaves, a sample of A&E Spartacus to get me to free shipping level. Not pictured is a 2 band SHD knot for a brush handle i just received. I set the knot today and will break it out on Saturday.

  5. Been in bed all week with a respiratory deal. As such, I cannot adequately express to you how awesome Lemon Chill is in this situation. I have a new level of appreciation...

  11. Thanks Jeff! I haven't gotten many shavette shaves in as I took up the straight razor. So many razors ...so little time.

    Hi guys!
    Shavette Shave #137
    Dovo Shavette
    Personna Hairshaper Blade (3)
    Rockwell Synthetic Brush
    Stirling Bay Rum SS and AS
    Nivea ASB
    Well, I am back shaving with my Dovo shavette. Rocky gave my a nice voluminous lather to give me an IBSS+ with only 2 passes and no touchups. Did get a few miniscule weeps that disappeared with cold water and a touch of a styptic pencil. Due to the very tiny weeps, I consider it a non-event. It was like the blade was telling me don't get too cocky because I can make you really pay for your nonchalance. Lol! This shave didn't have any irritation. The Bay Rum scent is a favorite scent for me. It might not be for others because of the cinnamon/clove concoction. Splashed a liberal amount of the matching aftershave and didn't get much of the usual burn. Finished with the Nivea ASB. I smell great and look great. Ok, the look great comment is debatable. Lol! Have a great evening my shaving buddies! 20200213_160352.jpg

  15. The power of menthol--at your command! Life is good, sir ;)

  16. Nothing like a highly Mentholated soap to clear out the airways! I hope you are feeling better, Randy.

  20. Glad to hear the menthol is helping out with that. Hope you get over the crud post haste, sir.
