    IMG_1360.JPG Skipped yesterday's shave, as I'm still getting over whatever I caught in Chicago. This morning's shave was smooth as butter with a one-day growth. I used Pacific shaves caffeinated cream for the first time. It was slick, but did not sustain enough lather for three passes. I don't know if it was me or the product that was the problem. Not my closest shave ever, in fact just less than a DFS, but it was smooth, comfortable, and adequate so I will take it. Dad dropped by with a second spalted maple handle in a totally different style than the first one. Now I'm sitting around waiting on knots to arrive.

    Great photo Mark. Are you planning on keeping the razor polished or let it develop a patina.

    Hmm. Need to ask the bride if she is trying to keep me from hurting myself.
