Lather: Arko Razor: Weck Sextoblade Blade: Personna hair shaper Brush: ProPro boar Post: BDLM3 aftershave I love Wecks, but I have the military version with heavy metal scales. Tweaks the balance more than I prefer, and Personna HSBs are my least favorite blades for it, but I still can't find Kismet blades in the US. Arko worked perfectly well, only requiring me to use a balmy type post, as usual.
You say you "still" think towels are the leading cause of dry skin. When did you BEGIN this train of thought?(chuk yuk yuk yuk).
Wednesday, December 7 Day 18 Arko~~Simpson M7~~Friodur 472~~Sailor Jerry (not pictured)~~Montale Leather Patchouli Missed yesterday's shave, having come down with what appears to be influenza. On there bright side, I scored this beautiful M7, one of my favorite handles and this one has a very nice Manchurian knot. Arko shows some serious usage, but we're not finished yet. The 472 is a classic and always gives a superior shave. Montale to finish.
Y'know, if I bathed in a pond, the pond would be full of Clubman(or COULD be depending on my "rotation".).
Aaah, I'm not su sure, since one of the features of Clubman is OakMOSS. As for the fishies, they'd get used to it quickly.
Sorry to hear you are under the weather, Maestro. If you were plugged up, at least you avoided smelling the soap for a day…
Welll....I don't know that you can put me in THAT persuasion-but I'll get back to you if I try it and like it(the stick).

Here's a story for you that hopefully will enlighten you as you proceed through your flu(and I'm sorry you have it, by the way). At about the 4th day of my last flu(when I had very little energy to do anything except lie in bed and sip water and casually bite some crackers), my Mom called me and said maybe it's time to take a shower and shave, I might feel better. I did both, and I DID feel better .(Course not 100%, but it put me in that direction).
That was good advice your mother gave you, Paul. I just showered and shaved and do, indeed feel much better. Thank you for the well-wishes.
I have a few suggestions. AA (Anosmics Anonymous) RTA (Roadside Toilet Aficionado) and for the Yul Brynner fans out there: The Magnificent Shaven
