    Hogie, I am sorry you feel that way. Remember, you don't have to follow the themes because they are only suggestions. However, I believe in letting people go if that's their desire, but you always will have a place here. If you change your mind then that's great. If you leave, then I wish you the best. God bless.

    good day gents
    fabulous creed viking inspired shave today.
    the gold rocket making it's quarterly appearance performed perfectly.
    as you gents probably know by now i am not a big gold razor fan
    but this one is somewhat rare and in great shape.
    rhodium was the common precious metal on brit gillettes,
    at least for a short time.stopped around 1960.

    Lovely setup and shave Gary. It's amazing that I also picked out my MrEE LE #10 for my shave later today. Great minds think alike.

    SE Shave # 272 - MICROMATIC & DARKFALL MONDAY

    Rating: 5 / 5

    Razor: GEM Micromatic Open Comb
    Blade: GEM Stainless (1)
    Brush: Epsilon Horse Hair
    Lather: Declaration Grooming Darkfall
    Aftershave: Declaration Grooming Darkfall
    Additional Care:
    Stirling Alum Block
    Humphreys Cucumber Melon Witch Hazel
    Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

    Today I elected to put a nice blade in the MMOC. The shave was extremely close, however, I knew before I rubbed the alum block on my face that there would be a significant report. I even had a report with just water on the face. I did manager to get a few delayed weepers.

    Five hours later, my face is still extremely smooth. I love the scent of the Darkfall. It is a perfect scent for the upcoming months of the year but I love to use it year round.

    I hope you all have a great day gentlemen.

    I think the only gold one I have is the 1930's New Model open comb (Long Comb). I may be using that this week! ;)
    Burn thru some DE blades!

    Your kidding right? Hogie I enjoy seeing your posts whether shave related or trips to your favorite waitress at that Italian restaurant you enjoy.
    Your shaves share the variety of soaps and razors that you have amassed in relatively short period of time. On top of that, you have something rare in some of your post that add a certain pennache, Theo!

    I hope you choose to stay around. Know that you are always welcome here.
