  2. Gorgeous shave and photo Jim.

    Another gorgeous shave and photo Blair. With that much snow Atlanta would be shut down for a week or more. Stay safe and warm.

  3. I had never heard of that WS 23, Dave. Looked it up. Do you ever just used a menthol additive instead?

  5. Interesting. I use Gold Bond occasionally (not really shave related per se) and do have a vintage bottle of Old Spice talc that I enjoy...without reading in depth on it, why does Dr Mrs Primo eschew its usage?
    Would this count for baby powder as well?

  7. Tell her I'm on it and the Sweet Baby Ray's :happy088:
    Mine sways too and I know a mini focus would help me improve the efficiency but I gravitate to razors that don't require the focus as I rotate so many different ones..............................SQUIRREL
    BEAUTIFUL photo and shave !
    Glad you're prepared for dealing with the out of ordinary Blair. GREAT shave ! My TDH aftershave looks different, may check that out to see if the same. Mine:

  8. I have some 444 Cream but prefer the WS as it builds and doesn't affect scent as Menthol can. The Holy Black Creeper line was the 1st to use the WS (synthetic) cooling agents. Many others do now.

  9. Sorry it came to that with the Tatara, Clint. Is that brush new? I can’t recall.

  10. A beautiful pic, Pierpaolo, and some wonderful sounding British software as well.

  11. Glad to hear you made it home safely and without incident, Jeff. The conditions sounded very worrisome for a trip of that length.

  12. Very nice pic, Danny, and a very informative review of the B plate as well. Straight labels are not a sign of the price paid for hardware, believe me.;)

  13. Beautiful lather indeed. Valobra seems to be the TFS of 3x milled tallow pucks. Lots of other labels besides their own- AoS, Czech & Speak...are there others, Joseph?
  14. We probably will be. No temps expected above freezing til noon Friday. And 3-6 more inches expected Wednesday.

    Thanks Dave! For us it’s an inconvenience, but for many this just blows their mind, and for some…it could be a real problem.

    We just got another notification that the rolling power outages….could be almost permanent til Tuesday afternoon. And then power went out…..geez.

  15. Thanks, Dave!

    I started my wet shaving journey right here in the 30DC. The whole technique trumps tools really took with me. I've come to enjoy the challenge and I'll stick with a razor until it's no longer a challenge. That's just my thing with no expectations for anyone else. We all do what we enjoy and that makes me happy.

  16. Glad to hear the Timeless focus has been beneficial, Jim. Are you picking Blacklands next ‘just because’ or is there something you need to work on?

  17. @Dave in KY

    Forgot to mention, the TdH AS & EdP was in a set that Wifey bought. EdP is regular size, the AS a much smaller sample.

  18. Wow, stay safe with that weather, Blair. Your photo is remarkable, though, and that is really saying something with your usual standard. Love the gear as well...TdH? I hope to join you on it, eventually...:eatdrink047:
