  1. Thanks.
    It’s funny, you and I are opposites. I own 3-4 newly made straight razors, 1 PAA DOC razor, and a OneBlade core, everything else is old.

    It's shave #2 of my Rockwell Model T mini focus.
    Everything went well with this shave. The Semogue and the Modell T gave another great performance.
    On two passes and without any bloodshed or irritation, I got a nice BBS shave. Did my usual postshave ritual and smell nice and clean. I was with the highschoolers yesterday and today it is the middleschoolers. Have a nice day guys!

    PS
    I will be using the same setup all week so the picture will be recycled.
  4. Thank you Joe. I did have a good day. I hope you did as well.

  14. Tuesday April 13, 2021
    Razor: Rockwell 6s Plate 5
    Blade: Rockwell (3)
    Brush: Sorrentino Clown Puke
    Soap: T&S Sicily 1508.5
    AS 1: Skipped
    AS 2: Trotter Handcraft Post Shave Sample
    Fragrance: Penhaligon's Lothair

    In order to keep the 1508.5 going and also having Wed free for Williams Wednesday I used the Sicily again. Great lather and we continued with the 6s and shave 3 with the Rockwell Blade. No worries and no fuss but getting bored already with the mindless and consistent shaves that feel good...............what's wrong with me craving variety. I will be using a vintage single edge tomorrow which seems appropriate with Williams and will get back to the 6s Thursday. Skipped my normal for a couple years now every day using my Humphrey's because I have Paul's (StubbleDaddy) sample of his Post Shave Elixir he's testing and want to see how it feels without any other things that could muddy the waters. I'll hold my thoughts on it until I have enough uses and then share with him via email.................ahhh the suspense has got you all riveted to your keyboards now, doesn't it. Have a tremendous day everyone !

  18. Great Oren shave, John! I love my Vector! I was never an Oren fan. Sold my Oren Nano because I found the head too bulky, but hey, different strokes and all! I’m glad your shave went well! :)

  19. Thanks Joe, looks like your Rockin' the Rockwell too. Have fun with the middleschoolers and don't let them get the upper hand !

  20. You're fortunate, John! I have two of my father’s adjustable razors, a Slim and a Black Beauty, and my grandfather’s OT. You’re right, it’s nice to shave with inherited razors. I just don’t indulge my father’s too much as I’m not a Gillette TTO adjustable fan. My grandfather’s is another story! I enjoy shaving with it. :)
