    Good morning!

    A most excellent shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Nearly silent alum except for a hotspot on the left hollow of my neck. No residual redness or irritation.

    Have a great day!

  3. That's one of the good Bay Rum soaps from B&M. The Excelsior base is not worth purchasing.

  4. That's a shame. I really like the performance of the Excelsior base.

    Super smooth and efficient shave this morning. Christmas ornaments made by my son in his early preschool days.
    Have a great day gentlemen.

  6. Fine shave and post, Barry! Yeah! for old schoolers like us! Clubman Classic, the Veg, Aqua Velva and Old Spice will always be in my den.

  7. I should have clarified, it's the Bay Rum scent, not the soap base that makes that particular soap not worth purchasing.

    Good morning, gents!

    Quick check-in to let you all know my Bride is feeling better. We visited the ER yesterday. She has mild pneumonia, a viral infection, and is taking antibiotics. Her temperature is normal this morning. Hopefully today will be a better day. Thank you all for the prayers and well-wishes.

    My Danger brush, Red Tip, and Tabarian Lavac shave yesterday was delightful. ;) The soap was mostly Tabac with a few added bits of Mike's Hungarian Lavender. I was reminded that Tabac is clearly the best and easiest lathering soap I've ever used. I actually like the scent as well. Thank goodness I have a puck or fifteen in inventory. :D

    We have a doc visit this morning, but I hope to check back later. Have a great day!
  13. I am so happy to hear Kathy is doing better. Prayers continued.
