    Thanks, Bill! I have stayed away from the light and guard blades with my AC razors. I use Schick Prolines as my preferred blade, but also like Feather Supers.

    I've gotten way, way behind on the thread. Been busy with our county's honor band since Thursday night. Will be there today most of the day. Wonderful experience for the students, though, and that's our main focus.

    Yesterday was Fat Friday, so I used The Fat with the Fatboy on 9 with Polsilver blade. Fine American Blend to finish. Always good.

    This morning I used Stirling Dirty South Shavers meet-up soap, Superior Lather Catcher SE with GEM blade, and Fine L'Orange Noir to finish. Terrific shave.

    Enjoy your day!

    Not too pleased with my shave this morning. It's going to take me some time to negotiate this Duke Cannon Co. Shave Cream(in a tube). I was reading in the site that not much is needed. To me, MUCH is needed. It comes out of the tube quite thick. If you use a little bit, it appears to just evaporate into your face. It's like the invisible Rise creams, and I still have a few of those. But it IS visible right away. I got the major parts, but missed a few, and had 2 cuts. I'll keep it around, but tomorrow I'm going to the bullpen and bringing out a better cream. I had the Clubman Special Reserve aftershave, which was a nice finish. This Duke Cannon remains a work in "prOHgress". Barely Excellent.

    Sweet report, Bill! I know next to nothing when it comes to AC type blades, so this gives me a nice frame of reference :D

    Wonderful, wonderful photo, shave, and report, Jeff! One of those reports that makes you say, "What are you doing in front of a computer, dummy? Get up and shave!" Even if you've already shaved :happy102:

    Thanks Jeff.....maybe a good workout at the gym will help. Have a good one yourself.

    A fine couple of shaves, Perry! I've loved all the Lather Catchers I've ever seen, and L'Orange Noir is a fantastic scent profile to end just about any shave :D

    Sorry to hear the shave cream didn't work out for you, Paul! You'll dial it in the next time you bring it out of the den :)

    Thanks Tim...right, I'll certainly have some time until then to plan a new strategy.
