    Had an awesome 3 pass shave early this morning. I got a few shaves that weren't up to the usual prewar Tech standards last week, but I was back on my game with it (how I wasn't last week, who the heck knows, this razor is as instinctive as it gets) today. Whipped up a lather from one of my favourite scents, used the newish boar that is breaking in nicely, had 3 great passes and I am quite smooth.
    I'll move on to a favourite SE for a few shaves (this is science!).
    Obviously not shave related, but the view from the ski hill was pretty nice yesterday:

    Have a great day, all!

    Razor: Timeless .95 SC
    Blade: Gillette 7:0Clock Super Stainless (1)
    Brush: SOC Taj Mistura
    Pre-shave: Stirling Mentholated
    Soap: Timeless Razor Signature Scent
    Stirling Bay Rum witch hazel
    PAA Star Jelly unscented
    AS: DCCS Winter Reserve

    Good morning!

    Great shave with a less than optimal lather again today. At least I figured out what I've done wrong the last couple of shaves. I'm not loading enough soap. I won't make that mistake tomorrow. Three passes and I'm perfectly smooth. A little warmth from the alum on my neck but not hot like yesterday.

    Have a great week![​IMG]

    Lovely shave Patrick! Stay warm!
    Matthew sure is looking dapper these days, Neal!
    Sounds like a couple of pretty darn good shaves, Nirav!
    I agree with you Perry, the PAL IM is much like the E2 in terms of aggression. Awesome photo!
    Beautiful shot, Clint! I think we all suffer with that very same affliction.
    Fantastic photo Danny!
    Awesome photo Jim! And Happy Birthday to your daughter!
    Wow Jason, a pair of stunning photos!

    Loading more soap seems to be the remedy to most lather problems. Awesome photo Jim!
