    Are you saying you want Jim's day to be 20 hours long while the rest of us sweat through 24? :scared003:

    Tatara Masamune
    Gillette 7 O’clock Black
    Heritage Collection Dubl Duck with TnS Gel Boar
    Cella Aloe Vera
    ABB Principe Real Aftershave

    [​IMG]​

    Back to the Dubl Duck with the TnS gel boar knot. Today I was my first use of the Cella Aloe Vera. I spooned out a little soap into my shave bowl and went to work. I spent much more time lathering that I normally would adding a good bit of water as I bowl lathered. I ended up with enough lather for 5 or 6 passes. I brought out the Tatara Masamune. This razor has a very small sweet spot with it's 0.63 mm blade gap and negative blade exposure. I decided to experiment with a steeper angle. The results were phenomenal. I just missed an epic shave failing to buff my lower right neck enough. A splash of Principe Real and we are off to take my Mom lunch. I hope everyone has a great Saturday.

    Great shave, Clint. I am unfamiliar with this Cella. Is the scent similar to the original?

    Thank you, Andrew!
    Fortunately it's the last piece needed and not the first so we got everything done that we can.
    Thank you, Bruce!

    I don't plan on sweating. I'm gonna stay in the AC. :D
    With any luck, he can get done what he needs to and get back to the AC as well.

    CFG Ghost Town Barber~~Simpson 2 "Chubby"~~Feather AC/Professional Super
    This morning, after my java, I decided to beat the heat and use my string trimmer,
    and later this evening, mow.
    It takes almost an hour as my property has a LOT of "edges".
    Got it done and decided to shower 'n shave.
    Lovely, relaxing cool-water shower with some, and I don't usually discuss my shower-time,
    CFG Ghost Town Barber bath soap. (Good stuff, btw).
    Lathered of a bowlful of goodness with one of my favorite brushes,
    the CH2 Two-Band Super Badger (Sorry Simpson, you just don't make them like this anymore...:( )
    Now is when the shave gets interesting.
    After an hour of wielding the admittedly heavy and awkward Stihl trimmer,
    I could NOT get my hands to "relax" with the Feather AC.
    Three nicks later, I abandoned the shave.
    Should have used a DE, but Noooooo, Primo wanted to use his AC.
    Lesson learned.
    I am leaving the blood markings on my face as a reminder to use
    common sense in the future.    ​
