Tuesday, April 16 XPEC~~Morris & Forndran Ali Baba 2~~Barbasol Floating Head/Personna 74~~Avon Premiere Luxe Oud The end is nigh for the XPEC. Jason inspired me to break out the Barbasol. I used to think it was uber-aggressive, but I no longer have that opinion. The Avon is surprisingly awesome!
April 17, 2024 Feather AS D2 Feather PAA ShaveRite 210 Stirling Glacial Citron Shave Soap & Aftershave Happy Wednesday Everyone. The azaleas outside the front door are in full bloom so I couldn't resist using them as a SOTD photo backdrop. Take care and have a great day.
Day 1 & 2 April 16/17th Karve ‘D’ plate w PermaSharp Omega Evo / Burl&Resin Jeeves Blood on Steel SS Thayers Alt Innsbruck AS The last few days have gotten away from me a bit. Anyway, I did pick this 2018 30DC meet up LE as the next focus. Why? It is a bit older than the others I was considering and I love the Jeeves lather. 2 outstanding shaves to start the 3017. Have a great day all.
Wednesday, April 17 XPEC~~Vie-Long~~Barbasol Floating Head/Sharp Star Same old, same old. New Sharp Star.
Those were halcyon days, for sure. I value the friendships and interactions that have lasted through to today.
I still have good memories from those days. Like Jason, I continue to value the friendships that continue even now.
April 18, 2024 Cobra Classic Feather Pro Rudy Vey Rover with Muhle STF Stirling Glacial Citron Shave Soap & Aftershave Happy Thursday. The week is flying by for sure. I decided to break out the Cobra Classic, aka "The Snake". I know I am a bit biased but this has to be on of the coolest razors ever made. Once mastered the Snake delivers a fantastic shave but will bite if one fails to pay attention. Take care and have a great day.
The other day my barbarette cut off a lot of the former, but I'd like to think I still have the latter. Ahhh, one outta two ain't bad.

Day 4 April 19th Karve ‘D’ plate w PermaSharp Omega Pro/ Walnut & Brass JOHS Blood on Steel SS Thayers Shulton OS Things are ticking along nicely with the focus. I made sure I got the big, beautiful, black hairs visible in the pic for Joseph. He’s a fan. Have a great day all.
April 19, 2024 Cobra Classic Feather Pro Alpha Outlaw Stirling Glacial Citron Shave Soap & Aftershave Friday at last. Early morning shave with an evening post. I jinxed myself. The "Snake" got me this morning when I was not paying attention. Take care and have a great day.
This weeks theme was Koraat straight razors. I am closing in on finishing the tub of Castle Forbes. I think it should wrap up next week. While spring has spun in Seoul we have getting a lot air polutions from our neighbors to the west. In addition to the normal micro dust (air pollution) we get when the winds blow west to east we are also getting the yellow dust from Gobi Desert.
