May 2020 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Top Flight shave, my Brother. Hey, we're on BST (Bama Standard Time) here in Minnesota too. We're separated by six state lines, but everyone (at least the cool dudes) are rocking their Hammies today.

 

Flames! Nice!

 

Awesome report Jeff. I enjoy shaving with the Micromatic. If fact, I have two.

 

Oh boy!

 

I am back after a four day guys vacation. We normally go to Phuket and Macau twice a year together but with all the travel restrictions in place going overseas is not possible so we decided on a road trip. My shaving kit for the trip was my Karve F open comb, the most aggressive plate of course, Feather blades and DR Harris shaving stick. DR Harris hard soaps do not work well for me at home but on the road they performed fantastic. Good shaves with the Karve and feather blades.



Thursday and Friday were golf days and we stayed near the golf course. We were in Pyong Chang where the ski events were held for the winter Olympics. If there is snow then there is skiing and if there is no snow there is golf.



After Friday's round it was off the beach where we rented a pension. When Korean's go to the beach is a national imperative to eat seafood so we had the deluxe feast featuring sushi.





We were staying in city called Yang Yang, the province it is in famous for seafood, mushrooms and tofu. Saturday lunch was extra spicy tofu stew. I ordered the fusion version with cheese.

 

For Sunday's back home shave I used my big 8/8 Silverloaf kami to mow down 36 hours of growth.



Monday back to work shave: The Rocnel-G is my favorite GEM blade holder and it has been a long time since I used it so I decided to give it some love. It delivered an excellent shave and I am on my way to work.

 

No school like the old school

 

Thank you, Joe--after years with some pretty awesome synthetics, I was surprised how nice the boar is

 

Fantastic guy-trip set up and report--so much delicious looking food!

 

More gorgeous gear--love that Kami and the blade protector is beautiful. Those brushes are lovely as well

 

awesome Keith.looks like you had a great time..

 

Most of mine are. Actually having said that, tomorrow's shave plan is just that...for tomorrow. Different one after that.

 

You're right.....I can't predict the date for when my next one goes out(probably the one from The Soap Exchange).

 

I guess that means no oceanview property in MN, eh? (I never wrote that

 

Thank you Patrick. I do hope you get the new cutlery set of your own.

 

Looking good Tim. I hope you had a great Sunday.

 

Wonderful report Jeff. I learned a lot on this one. Thanks for taking the time.

 

Roughin' it, Keith.

 

Just the basics, Keith!
