  1. I still need to get around to trying out my Vi-John blades but I keep reaching over them for a different blade. You're sure not making me any more eager to get around to using them. :happy097: I figure I should give them a shot sometime this week anyway.

  11. Menthol Monday:

    A true Grand Freeze!

    Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Gillette day 13
    Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill SS
    Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill ASB
    Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill AS Splash
    Bleu de Chanel Deodorant Stick
    Bleu de Chanel Parfum

    This Gillette blade is still alive and kicking - day 13 and it helped me get a fantastic three pass BBS shave. The Glacial Lemon soap, balm, and aftershave had me shivering the whole time but it felt great!

    Have a good week - be well and safe!

  20. Gillette HD 500 (England) Razor

    Frank Shaving Extra Density Two Band Badger Brush
    Proraso/Love My Skin Spearmint Soap
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel w/Egyptian Musk

    Last week I received some blades from @Jrdelgado made by the Jewel Razor Co. of Sheffield England. They are platinum stainless blades and I waited five days to try one. All I can say is "wonderful". Mowing down my beard was effortless and I got a great BBS shave.
