    If you are referring to the Floris, it did. Two reformulations ago.

    Just out of curiosity, Joe, how does one stop being a sports fan?

    Very nice, Gary. From whence comes the name "Goodwill"?

    In comparing after my initial enthusiasm, Gary, I’d say that my Silversmith is every bit as good. As far as head shaves go it's the Shake Sharp, Vector, and Supply with a Twinjector in a virtual tie.

    Great shave, Keith! The scales on that scary-looking French Point are a very rich shade of blue! Great-looking!

    Wonderful shave Joseph! Your excitement of using Ethos lavender shave soap really came across. Have a fine day my friend!

    Beautiful image, Clint; the new razor looks fabulous! It’s apparently an incredible shaver as well! Hmmmmm? Maybe I should activate my delayed order? Nah!,, Hope the Tradere gets there today!

    Warning: Straight shaving can be addictive and may cause serious SRAD.

    BAUME.BE Shaving Cream
    RigaRazor 8/8
    Heritage Colletions Ever Ready 3-Step - 26mm Envy Shave 2 band badger
    Art of Shaving ASB - Unscented
    Yves Saint Laurent - La Nuit De L'Homme

    Special day today...wifey's birthday. Only the best of the best for the dinner date and celebration the girls and I have planned for tonight. Mid morning shave....up way too early working (planned). Mostly done for the day, now it's last minute errands for the celebration.

    Excellent results (lather release) from the Envy Shave knot, completely overloaded with an almond sized dollop smeared in the bottom of the bowl. Super fun rim over flowing slick lather with an awesome creamy face feel from the BAUME.BE. 3 full passes with the highly polished RigaRazor, no shenanigans at all. Love the square tip, easy to guide into the shadows for clean up (but don't dare have any pressure on it for a regular pass). BBS results, third lather round was entirely baby chasing XTG buffing for above the jawline, ATG buffing below (with surprisingly no irritation). Hefty application of the AoS unscented ASB, followed by a wifey top fragrance, YSL - La Nuit De L'Homme. Smooth & smellin' fine....

    Hope everyone has a terrific Thursday!
