  1. Either! I find that if I set the bar really low, I can always achieve my goals...:happy036:
  2. just arrived..parcel i of 2 ordered..2nd in a day or 3.. 20210107_131710_edited.jpg
  3. It's like peeling an apple. Two possibilities. 1) You move your wrist as if rounding a corner, or 2) you keep the strokes very short and work in minute straight lines.
  4. I tend to round the corner by moving my wrist. I will try the mini strokes on the next shave. Thanks for the suggestion. :)
  5. That's been my motto for the last 60+ years. Never yet underachieved.
  6. Interested in your thoughts on this Gary as I just saw it in one of Gus's @Str8on2 SOTD pics

  8. Fantastic shave Charlie! I use witch hazel, but not for every shave. It does help with clearing any irritation.

  15. Gorgeous safety razor, Charlie, and an awesome shave report! Please note that no soap comments were made! Different strokes and all! :)
  16. Fabulous shave, Jason! Love that brush handle! ;) Your shave technique must be superb to get away with only some minor neck irritation on your first R41outing! Enjoy your shaves! :)

  18. I would say: slim to none
    ...and @JACarbone a few months after that. Next Friday is the day I will put in my resignation papers for retirement with the district so I am eligible for the Terminal Leave Pay.:happy108: :eatdrink013: Then I’ll have more time to :pot:
  19. Schick N1, Schick II twin blade, shave 19

    Still working as it should with a BBS finish. As if the Taconic pump cream isn't slick enough adding some pure aloe vera gel into the cream before whipping up lather makes this stuff super slick and should work well with any cream. I hope adding aloe vera gel into the mix doesn't violate the focus rule since it is still the same style of pump soap though different stinkiness than the one I started out on.

  20. You got away scot-free on that, Joseph. . It would have been had you said "Can't say I do NOT agree".
