  1. Thank you Gary. :) Only my 2nd shave with this razor but they were awesome shaves. It just seems to glide and erase the whiskers. Very smooth and efficient.

    Blade - feather
    Brush - Gibbs
    Soap - razorock tuscan oud

    Awesome morning shave, the soap isnt as slick as some but just good enough. The scent is why i really use it. The razor works well with the feather.

  8. Today was a shave with my heartthrob razor of all time. :love055:

    It is a nearly identical grind to the Paragon I last used. It is curvier however. I wanted to see how they compared and they shave very similar which was no surprise. Not the greatest first pass WTG reduction but very nice finish. I’d say today’s Napoleon was a slightly better shave than the Paragon. :happy036:

    The Leaf Twig came in today. First shave and not too shabby at all. A DE half blade with an injector type like feel and shave. 24 hours of growth and gone in 3 passes with some minor touch ups. Get a few more shaves in to see if it’s a keeper or a goner. A wonderful evening and shaves to all....
  17. cool shave and pic Gus..:cool:
