    Excellent morning shave following a sprint workout in 29 degrees. Talk about invigorating . That will get you juices flowing.
    Regarding the shave following a nice shower, dare I say that I think I may have the SRX dialed it. Super smooth, no irritation, three pass shave. Two days of no weepers. I am feeling refresh and ready for the trip into Queens to head to the vet with Hercules. Just checking to see if he is allergic to something. He left eyes tears and he is constantly rubbing it. That being said, it has somewhat improved over the last two weeks.
    Well gentlemen have a great day. Joe, @Trigger, and I will be preparing for another shoveling event tomorrow.

  4. Great shave Joe! The Parker shavettes really perform well. Hope Hercules will get better after the vet sees him. Praying that this storm doesn't give us too much snow. Is it March 21 yet! Lol!

  5. They moved their production to Europe and have, for all intents and purposes, abandoned the N. American market.

  7. I have decided today will be a no shave day. Therefore, my 5th and final shave using my Parker shavette will be tomorrow. I want to end this focus with a bang by using a new blade to shave a full 2 days growth. It will line me up to do a Mon night shave with the Mühle 102.

  16. February 5

    Parker SRX
    Gillette Silver Blue (1)
    30 Day Crew LE Poculi handle w/28 mm APShaveCo SynBad flat top knot
    Tabac soap in the Philly Container
    Alum, Witch hazel, USB, Almond oil, CC Bay Rum AS & Terre d’Hermès Parfum

    I took off with a late evening three-passer on mini-focus flight #3, and the 777 landed safely near BBS airport. Super close and mostly comfortable results, but I do need to work on the light touch. That's the final hurdle to get to DE quality shaves. The alum was a tad warm. I saved the TDH for a nice wake-up call this morning, and it's still projecting smoky orange goodness some six hours later.

    And of course...

    Tabac = Winning

    I'm heading out for a hike with friends to soak up some Vitamin D. I hope you all are having a great weekend. Grace and Peace.

  17. Great shave, Dave! It’s the only SE I know that uses DE blades. I’m sure there are probably others, but I don’t know of any. :cool:
