    Fantastic shave, Luke!
    Beautiful shave, and thanks for the repair tutorial, Gary! I love the classic Mustangs.
    Jason, congrats to Ava! I hope you all had a great weekend in Calgary at the dance competition.
    The razor is a beauty, Adam. I'm glad to see you're still enjoying the Route 66 soap. I read in another thread that it might not be available anymore.
    Enjoy your weekend, Neal!
    JB Weld, duct tape, and a ball-peen hammer will suffice for most repair situations, particularly on electrical motors.
    Cruisin', Jim. What a nice way to start a Monday. Have a great week!
    Great shave and super busy day, Perry. Hope you get some rest tonight.
    Early morning but a great shave with the Red Tip, Brian. Safe travels! Where will you be this week? Just want to know what region of the U.S. will have their antique stores cleaned out. :)

    Krampert's Bay Rum~~Simpson CH2 Synthetic~~Detroit National Cut. Co.

    "Bay Rum Mondays" is there such a thing?
    I bombed it to comply with tradition.

    Here's weird tidbit, usually I get a pretty good burning sensation from the Krampert's, but today...
    Nada. Zilch. Zippo.
    :signs002::signs002::signs002::signs002: Could it have been the M Bomb :signs002::signs002::signs002::signs002:

    The lather this soap creates is also weird. It's fluffy and lacks density, very similar to MWF.
    However, it's slick and protective and the post shave is excellent.

    Left a "line" on my right cheek due to an awkward set-down.
    For my XTG pass, I am cross-handing it. And while the left side goes well,
    the right side (left hand) is still unusual in the mirror.
    The Detroit National Cut. Co. (phew, what a name!) was well-sharpened by Glen @gssixgun
    and is a nice razor to use.

    Results on the neck are improving, even though Keith, who is currently shaving at the Taj Mahal,
    still hasn't revealed the "SECRET" to the final pass.
    Do I need to join the fraternity, @Keithmax ????
    :prrr::prrr::prrr::prrr::prrr::prrr::prrr::prrr:
    I was never a fraternity kind of guy.

    Passed 11K posts the other day without any fanfare. :angry017:
    Still trying to move the Old Type out of the den.
    Taking my daughter to the shooting range this afternoon. She's a deputy prosecutor and needs to
    carry and be comfortable with firearms.

    It has been fun following your exploits with the Starling, Jim. I bet you will like the open comb. Have a safely electrifying day and stay out of the turnout gear!

    Thanks Jim. It's got that cool notch at the front of the blade. Not sure the purpose of it, though.

    Beautiful razor and a great start to the week, Joseph! May you enjoy Taj Mahal shaves all week. Have fun with your daughter at the shooting range. It's cool to have a Dad with straight razor scars wearing an Omega Speedy that packs heat. :cool:

    That's great!

    We used to joke about having to stay at places rented by the hour. Premium charge if you wanted fresh sheets.

    Great shave and photo Jim. I hope you have a great day as well.



    Wonderful shave and photo Joseph. I like the scent and skin care of the Krampert's aftershave. I do wish the scent had better staying power.

    Not moving nearly as quickly as I should be this morning. At least everything worked well together. Three passes and touch ups ended in a near perfect shave. I hope everyone has a great Monday.
