    Thank you for the update Andrew. Hopefully they can get things narrowed down and begin a treatment process soon. Best wishes to your entire family through all of this. It's not easy for anyone.

    Tuesday February 13 - TSD focus

    Schick E2 / Personna ( 1 )
    30DC LE Maple Cashmere synthetic brush
    TSD Lavender lanolin soap
    Alum and TSD Milk Aftershave Lavender
    (No styptic pencil)

    I stayed with an injector but switched to my Schick E2 today. As you can see from the photo, the original owner thought highly enough of the razor that he had his name engraved on it. I have often wondered who he was...

    Much better shave today -- no rookie or other mistakes. Just light pressure and careful skinstretching during two passes to reach a highgrade DFS. I really enjoy the pure lavender scent of the TSD soap and milk aftershave.

    Thank you, gentlemen! I am really enjoying the TSD software lineup. And I think I will spend the rest of the month with injectors.

    In other news, my Semogue Owners Club boar brush has agreed to transform itself into a Tuxedo brush instead. Sort of. The boar knot has disappeared down to the rim of the handle but digging out the rest isn’t going so well. So far, I have a small hole into the glue knot and a rather larger one in my finger where the knife slipped...

    Nice picture, John! I have a E3 that someone "engraved" (scratched) his name on the head, which just so happens to be my name. Amazingly, I was the only bidder on eBay for that artistic example.

    Thank you. Since I have a Cobra and had a Mongoose, that helps me understand the Rognel G better. I think I will start watching the BST forums for one to come up for sale.

    We can call this post "Brian Goes To The Barbershop"(two classic b-shop brand). Y'know, like "Mr. Smith Goes To Washington".

    Waiting is very hard. I am rooting for your father and that his successful treatment can start very soon.
