Your wife should appreciate that face so smooth Babies' Butts are jealous kind of thing you got going on now... And also the fact that it takes you half as long to shave now which frees up the bathroom for her... You have to point these little things out....She might order you some injector blades...
Thats a Bad looking Gem you got there Wyatt...Your set-up today looks like something your avatar Wyatt might have used... You need to hang a Buntline Special next to that Lather Catcher....Maybe not....that Lather Catcher looks deadly enough...

Not that deadly with the right blade... I find the Ted Pella GEM blades are too sharp for this razor The PAL's are more forgiving
Thursday Dec. 8 Good shave today. Tried to change things up again.Yesterday I used PRORASO white and had the best shave off my life. Today I used the RazoRock classic. Not a great shave but a good shave. Not sure if its the Feather blade losing it edge already(day2) or if it was the RazoRock. Will switch back to PRORASO tomorrow and see.

Early Friday Morning Razor - Thomas Turner "Lancet Edge" Strop - My Own Creation Brush - Vie Long Horse and Badger Mix Soap - Culmak Post - Alum & Old Spice Whitewater What an edge this beauty took tonight, my old Sheffield razors seem to like my new strop. I don't know how old this razor is, it looks as though it should be post war and has the phrase Cutlers to his majesty on it so it must have been pre 1952 when our current Queen was crowned. Not that any of that matters, what does though is that the shave was excellent.
