April Focus MdC~~Rubberset~~Feather/Spoiler~~Terre d'Hermès As you can see, I am making headway with the MdC fougère. There are still quite a few shaves remaining, but I am determined. Went easy on the neck with the AS-D2 and the now thrice-used Gillette Spoiler. I focussed on keeping the pressure to the absolute minimum. Angle is now easy to find and keep. I did venture an ATG pass on the neck, albeit sans pressing. I still have some light residual on the neck, but all-in-all, a very nice shave. Today's FOTD® This juice never fails to please. The sillage is moderate as is the projection.
April 10, 2021 Feather AS-D2 Feather Simpson CH2 Synthetic MdC Fine Lavender Pour Homme Aftershave Happy Saturday Everyone. Back with the MdC for the weekend. Inspired by @Keithmax , I added a few drops of lanolin to the MdC. This little trick really transformed MdC into something truly special. I will certainly use lanolin with MdC in the future. Three passes and touch ups ended in a perfect drama free BBS shave. Swati and I are off to visit my Mom for the day. I hope everyone has great Saturday.

I decided to bust out the Blue Tip for a spin. It delivered a smooth and comfortable shave. The soap, which has a slight smoky scent was easily lathered by the Jayaruh brush. The Omega 48 knot just does the job nicely. it is time to deal with some chores including but not limited to fertilizing the front and back lawn and spreading some mulch into the flower beds. You might call this the practice MOLC chores of the Spring. Have a great day gentlemen.
Great shave, Joe! I dethatched, fertilized and Revived last week. The lawn is starting to green up. I've been forced to hand water as the irrigation water to the neighborhood hasn't been turned back on yet. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
Good shave, Paul! Enjoy your day! Great shave and photo, Jim! How’s that gelled boar working for you?
What is it about bellied extra hollow grinds that you have an issue with? Victor Creazzi’s razors feature that grind and all I can say is that it delivers an awesome shave. They do sing! Do you own any razors with that grind?
It certainly is, Jim, and it was developed by one of our own, @Manumik! I’m really looking forward to shaving with it. All the prerelease reviews have been stellar!
