After staring off and on at my F for the past few days (and waiting for a stick of La Toja to arrive in the mail) I took it out for the maiden shave. Here's the short story: It shaves as good as it looks. Do I need to say more?

Christmas Morning's Dove Men Face Wash Saponificio Varesino Dolomiti Shave Soap Jayaruh #31 2-band Finest Micromatic OC GEM Stainless CWR, Asma Alum Block Thayers Rose Petal WH Pinaud Clubman AS The Saponificio Varesino Dolomiti Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #31 two-band finest badger brush. Two passes with my Micromatic OC Razor and a GEM Stainless blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, alum block, and a final cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayers Rose Petal WH and then Pinaud Clubman after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Straights to the Finish Line! December 24 Short day at work today Did a quick one pass this morning and went to work, came home, sat around, ended up watching several episodes of Breaking Bad on Netflix. SWMBO has never seen it so we started it last night. She's hooked now. No plans for tomorrow except to be a bum and I'm just not motivated to gear up to shave tonight. So, it's a no-shave day for me. I'm confident enough in my work that I think the next three days will have me ready for Monday's first try with the Soviet. Hope everyone is having a great night and wishing you a fantastic December 25th! Счастливых праздников!! (Happy Holidays)
Sure, I checked most beauty supply stores in Turkey to buy a tima tto, but many are defected, so I bought it from a peddler by chance. I paid 6TL = $2 but it shaves very very well. You can take a look at "ming shi" razor online, it has a better shiny chrome coating with better finishing in general. I have both of these razors and I think Tima is a poor graded copy of Ming shi.
