    Awesome, Jim! La Toja is one of the European classics I’ve yet to try.
    Very nice, Clint. Which plate have you settled on for the Supply?
    Agree 100% on the NEW LC. You got it for $5? THAT is a steal.
    I’m not a huge Tabac fan for scent, but the lather is top tier. I would suggest more product if it was thin, Blair.
    Congrats, Joseph. I am only 100 behind you...
    Super stuff, Mark. Love that Varlet, and love the L’Orange Noir
    Another La Toja! Very cool.
    Love that brush every time you use it, Andrew. Perhaps my favourite non-400 vintage.
    I think Et tu is making the list...

    Safe travels, Chris. Anywhere exotic, or just to Kentucky? :)

    Thanks Jason.....got it probably 4 years ago at a flea market. I did not know that much about the Gillettes at that time but I figured it was worth that. I have really come to appreciate the razor.

    Hi everyone! I just received my Rockwell Model T razor, today! I ordered it just over 8 months ago. She really looks fabulous. Unfortunately, I will have to wait until tomorrow to shave with it because it's only been approximately 19 hours since my last shave and my stubble needs 30 hrs of growth before I can shave effectively. Anyway, I have pictures of the box (black), the Model T, the tuck of blades and a head protector. It also came with a razor bank. (not pictured).

    Thanks, Jim! It was a long wait. However, there have been others who have waited years.

    Congratulations on hitting 100 SR shaves, Joseph! Now, you will always be able to straight shave whenever you want without any worries. Remember: you have joined an elite company of shavers. Well-deserved, my friend! Looking forward to more straight shave posts from you!
