    Igor is a nice looking razor. Your excellent Christmas SOTD photos are inspiring me to take some Christmas themed photos.

    It’s a dance move. Use this for practice and then post up a video of you doing it

    I’m really liking this Oleo Soapworks soap. I did finally figure out that there is a limit on how many shaves I can get on a straight without refreshing the edge. A lot It looks like it’s time to dig the finishing stone out to refresh the two straights I didn’t pack for the move.

    I learned a big lesson about Colgate soap cakes.....USE IT RIGHT AWAY! I let mine go too long, and right when I was planning to get going with it, the scent weakened, and it began looking weird.

    I was talkinabout the fact that somehow the big guy snuck into my post after I'd already done the smaller version.
