Thank you Clint!

You are welcome, Tim! You're enthusiasm in wetshaving is very contagious!

Good morning Gary...I guess it's time to get into the "Technique" persuasion on doing a focus.

Thanks, Gary!

Beautiful picture!
Nice run thru, I had an issue holding the darn thing right too.

I did the tape thing too.


Still have it, it did help me learn how to wield it without the business part getting in the way.
Good luck!

Gem Damaskeene OC
Gem PTFE
Duke 3 Synthetic
A&E Dirty Ginger
Shave Soap & Aftershave

​

I decided to spend the next week using the Gem Damaskeene OC razor. It is a razor that I don't use very much at all. Checking back over my notes, I have only used the razor 19 times since 1/1/18. The little Duke 3 synthetic loaded the A&E Dirty Ginger with ease. I added the Terrorade to the brush before face lathering. The resulting chill seems to knock down my tingling reaction to the ginger in the soap. Three passes and touch ups ended with a wonderful BBS shave. A splash of the matching aftershave and I am ready for the day. I hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday.

For @wristwatchb Charlie, a wrist shot of my Citizen NY0040-17LE I picked up earlier this year.

The master speaks!
Great shave Joe!
I'm reading everything you post with great care and thought.
thanks!

Terrific shave and picture, Clint!
Nice watch!

Thank you Jim. I wanted a weekend bang around watch. The blue dial changes color based on the lighting. I need to get a blue nato for it.

Fantastic Tim!
I don't do the open blade thing durring the week because I'd be up around 4:30-5:00 too.

Awesome shave Clint! I thought a wrist shot was a hockey term.

Really nice picture Jim!
Nice shave too, I don't have one, but the dart will come around to your way of thinking.

I am humbled and honored, Terry! I pretend that you guys are watching me when I shave and that it psyches me out to perform at my best. Thank you for the kind words.

So. Getting ready for church when my 14 year old daughter comes in to speak to the Missus. Mid-sentence she stops and says, "Who smells good?" After sniffing around the Missus for a while, it was determined that the culprit was me.

Clubman... confirmed!

Thanks Jim!
He likes talking to his pappy on the radio, normally it's to see if he can come over.

Thanks, Terry!
For a long time the Dart would have been my desert island razor. I seem to have lost my touch with it. I still get terrific results from it but it doesn't feel as smooth as I remember.

Thanks Tim!

Awesome photo and report, Jim! Stoked to hear the razor is most likely okay after all--it's beautiful!

Thanks, Terry!

That's so cool!
