  2. Very nice setup Tom!!
    Gary, you're pics lately are blowing me away. Incredible!!

    Nice to see the Williams getting some love Joseph. I have some vintage and find it to be a great soap. Nothing fancy but very effective.
  3. Great setup Jason. That bowl is beautiful btw!!

  4. Probably the bad blade, however I've had "no weeper" shaves with the same type(Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot +). They always happen around the same place though, so there MIGHT be a technique issue.

  7. Gyms opened back up today. Crazy to think how out of shape you can be without working out in a month. D61E1705-C464-4D83-BC7A-A65779F0D07A.jpeg
  8. @jluc Did you get the email on the Tradere Pre-Order? If so what do you think?

  13. Thank you, Patrick!
    I did get the email. As of now I'm saying that I'll get in on the pre-order. What I'm really up in the air about is which one. Kinda leaning towards the Gen 2 SB.
    What are your thoughts?

  16. I received it! It was one of the first modern artisan designs. How will it compare to current offerings? Blackland builds great razors, but he said he’s maintaining the original specs! I may order, but probably won’t. I already have so many excellent shavers! I’ll probably wait for the Wolfman!
  17. Just be careful, Myles! Not everyone’s convinced that it’s the right time to open things up!

    Razor: Gillette Old Type
    Blade: Feather Hi Stainless (2)
    Brush: Simpson X3 Best Badger
    PS: Proraso Red
    SS: MWF
    AS: Old Spice

    Normally I would use a Fatboy on Friday but I got a plating session in and plated my first old type. Not the first OT I have plated, but the first for my collection. With Mayhem just around the corner my chances to use new razors will be limited.

    I worked the feather just a little too hard and gave myself some irritation on my cheeks. Probably should stay away from using a feather in a razor I am not familiar with.
