    Back at you Matt. Your photos always are excellent and look like professional ads. I dig the black and read theme.

    Honestly Tim, this one was a bit of a miss for me. It is OK, but not one of my top favorites. The Chocolate Cube is excellent though and I highly recommend it. I thought the rose and chocolate would be stronger on the soap, but I think the added complexity kind of made the scent too mixed up and confusing. I can't put my finger on the the exact scents that muddle it up to me, but I would have preferred something a bit more straight forward. I love PAA and many of their scents match my preference, but this one missed my personal taste a bit.

    That is just a flat out beautiful handle from Timeless. The grip and shape look just perfect!

    Thank you, sir!

    A very classy, subjective assessment.

    I love this! I have a couple of the original Bandit sets. I didn't spring for the updated soap because I couldn't justify it. I really like the fragrance, too.

    Greetings,

    A relaxing Sunday morning shave...The ever ready 1912 (US) was my first introduction to the wonderful world of Ever Ready SE vintage razors kindly gifted to me by a fellow member of TSR forum (UK) From my first trepidation maiden shave, i was instantly swooned by these vintage ladies, not just the looks the smooth efficiency of these razors is remarkably good as is the audio feedback i could happily shave with these razors forever, but like everyone else i like to rotate my razors in my shave set ups.

    A relaxing 3 pass + pick ups Close comfortable Sunday morning shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a small dollop of Aloe Vera Gel.

    My face is feeling silky smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Stay safe, and enjoy Sunday ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

    Jeff's Soap was lathered well with the Jayaruh #419 2-band Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the C.V. Heljestrand Lather Catcher with a Heljestrand Wedge blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
