March 30, 2023 Feather AS-D2 Feather Mondial Boar Mitchell’s Wool Fat Speick After Shave Another wonderful shave this morning. I really hope I am starting to make a dent in the MWF. At least I can readily see that the Speick after shave going down at a fast pace.
Thank you, Charlie. I have a full bottle still, but will go hunting around for another NIB sometime. I really like the Arkadia. It is a quality dupe for sure. Sounds like you’ll need a TdH (or dupe) splash soon to go with it. Sure, that works… Eye on the puck? Yes, but keep your head up or it’ll be a yard sale…
March 31, 2023 Hone 15S Shavemac Synthetic Feather Mitchell’s Wool Fat Speick After Shave March 2023 Recap I have made pretty good progress with the MWF. It is around 50% gone. More importantly it is well saturated which means it is being used at a fast pace. Thank goodness! Most of all I have enjoyed hanging out with you guys.
I’ve missed those awesome pic summaries, Clint! I see that APShave is now selling some synthetic knots that are handmade in Germany, as well as some labelled Muhle knots. I wonder if either are the supplier for those Shavemac synthetics.
Thank you Charlie. In addition to the progress on MWF, I’ve been using the Lose It app daily. I’ve lost 29 lbs in 63 days. I just took the app’s recommended calories per day and. It that number in half or more. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Thank you Jason. I really like the calendar at the end of the month. I bet they are the same knots. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I’m feeling good with the weight loss. I think I’ll hit my weight loss goal before I finish the Fat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Friday, March 31 MWF~~Vie-Long~~Cobra Classic~~Michael for Men Day Twenty-Nine and there's no end in sight. Quite possible I'll be using MWF in May.
Saturday, April 1 MWF~~Rubberset 400/3~~1947 Gillette Super-Speed/Light Brigade (1)~~YSL M7Day Thirty Broke out a fresh Wilkinson Chromium a.k.a. "Light Brigade". One of the smoothest, sharpest and longest-lasting blades EVER produced. I have gotten 30 3-Pass shaves from these suckers---they're that good. Let's see what gives up the ghost first, the blade or the soap.
April 1, 2023 Gillette 47 Super Speed Paladin Gillette 7 O,clock Black Mitchell’s Wool Fat La Toja Aftershave Seems like @Primotenore and I were thinking the same thing on razor choice. Even funnier when I bought this razor along with a Gillette Short Comb several years back. As Joseph said the key with MWF is to really load the soap. I had enough rich slick lather for 6 passes. The 47 Super Speed smoothly removed the stubble. This is an extremely smooth and efficient razor. I hope everyone has a fantastic Saturday.
Day 29 Well, thought I’d be done today, but it looks like there is just enough left in the tub for another shave. I feel like a Bond villain- “why won’t you die, Mr Bond”…
