Greetings,

The Sunny Supreme Stainless performed wonderfully this morning.

All the SC blades I've revisited so far have all been surprisingly good especially the Gillette 365 & Treet 7 day platinum both blades have been sharp and smooth for me.

I’m so glad that I've revisited all these blades instead of reaching for my usual suspects. I will continue my SC blade focus and revisit all of them again trying them various other razors in my feature SOTD set ups.

A comfortable 2 pass + pick ups shave with no errors to report. Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of TRSCO Post Shave Soothing Balm.

My face is feeling smooth cool, & smelling divine.

Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.

Stay warm everyone!

Great shaves and setup Barry. May you have a sunny afternoon as well.

Glad your feeling better Eric. Fab Fat shave.

Wonderful shave Danny. That is a heck of a temperature differential. Stay warm and safe.

Thanks Joe and you as well.

Grest shave this morning with the Gillette British Slim razor. This morning has progressed nicely which included the X3Bar Push workout. Following a hot shower the three pass shave has left my face feeling absolutely wonderful.

Now I have a bunch of errands to run including but not limited to going to the following stores, Sam’s Club, Meat Farms, the butcher and Stop n Shop for the necessary items for Christmas dinner. Once I do all go those chores I will commence with the baking of some cookies. Guaranteed that by the end of the weekend I will be exhausted.

Hope you all have a great day gentlemen.

Terrific Thursday shave Joe. Watch out for the Cookie Monster! Lol!

Another real fine shave for this Throwback Thursday. Cheeks&Sideburns look and feel great, as does South Porcupine Alley(chin). I missed a spot or two on North Porcupine Alley(area between the lips and nose). A much better job overall down at Cactus Nation(neck). One pass. No cuts, Knicks, or polka-dots. A nice Barbasol shave. Paul Sebastian aftershave to close. Super Duper Excellent.

Thank you, Joe...Have a sunny afternoon as well my friend.

Agreed on all counts.

Thank you Gary.

You’re welcome! All is well as retirement suits me.

Awesome shave Joe

Fabulous shave Barry.

Glad you are feeling better Eric. Great shave this morning.

Thank you Joe.

Thanks Joe.

fabulous thursday affairs gents.
