January 2022 30 Day Rule/Focus and Discussion. All Are Welcome!

I cannot get the M to shave at all below 5. I had been using it at 6.5 or so. For this shave I dialed it up to 8 and employed my recently developed ninja feather-light touch technique. Results were fine on cheeks, too much stubble on the neck.

Seems a waste to set this one aside with only 3 shaves in on the blade, but I am more disturbed that I wasted a rare Personna 74 tungsten on this razor when I first got it. Two bloodbaths was enough. I will likely be looking to move this razor along to someone who will appreciate it more.

 

Thanks Gary!

Awesome Slim shave Gary!

 

thank you Joe.random pick today.tech work shave tomorrow.

 

What I've done when moving on from an injector with a blade that was both new and one I wanted, was to carefully load a sChick blade, and really carefully reload the wanted blade back into the dispenser. Both times that I did this I didn't notice any degradation of the blade. But be careful about reloading, both the blade edges and your fingers!

 

Great idea. If/when a blade needs changing from the others, I can load the old blade in the dispenser, then it becomes the placeholder. Or I can just use a fresh Ted Pella to eject the good blade and it becomes the placeholder.

 

No tipping of the hand allowed, just reapplication. Fantastic shave Paul.

 

Wow! A beautiful shave Gary.

Fantastic Proraso Friday shave. I decided to use the Type G injector today as a comparison to the Type J I used on Wednesday. My assessment is that I received close shaves with both. I did not have to buff this morning g as I did on Wednesday. Perhaps I just have to get the angle just right for the J which will come in time I am sure.

This was my first used of the Proraso aftershave. I t has a nice , crisp scent, however, longevity is not it’s strong suite. Probably last about 15 minutes to 30 minutes. Post shave feel was very nice.

I hope you all have a great day. Those of you in the Northeast, rest up.

 

Exactly!

In other news, an amber handle Type G and a Canadian Type G should be in the mailbox today!

 

Right, we're going to have a nice sunny day Sunday for the cleanup(of cour cars, that is....the driveway will be plowed by employees of the place(or town).

 

Thank you Joe...kinda important when an animal tells us to work on our lathering.

 

thank you Joe.some sunshine outdoors today.

 

awesome injector shave Joe.love the proraso green aftershave.nice stuff.

 

Great injector shave Joe. I live the Proraso Green aftershave. I wish the sillage was longer as well. I am ready to be hunkered down the next 24 to 48 hrs.

 

Looking forward to your thoughts on those razors Eric. Congrats!

 

Smooooooth shave, Paul!

 

Friday evening, after a superb evening meal consisting of ”Tapas” , Spanish for small dishes, Irish Coffee and Huey Lewis on the Turn Table. Life is beautiful!

Enjoy your coming evening Sirs! Here in Sweden is about bedtime.

@wristwatchb Hi Charlie. Hope everything is well with you and Kathy. I know you were planning on going to Rochester, Minn this month so I have kept praying for Kathy's continued recovery.

 

Sounds like you had a nice evening Hans.
