    Good morning friends. How's this for mayhem, a week of cartridge shaves . Also this morning features a new knot for the trials, the Maggard SHD bulb. This knot hands down has the most backbone of all of the brushes that I own (well except for maybe the CH2 synthetic, it's pretty close to that level of stiffness though). Wonderful velvety soft get tips that create that wall of badger feeling with no scritch at all. I think I may have a new all time favorite! Iced Pineapple, you all know how I feel about. Happiness in a jar! Love it! Great shave with the Trac II, it just goes to show that when you apply good technique any tool can be used with success. Did a full three passes and ended up IBBS. Unfortunately as I was trying to take the cartridge off the head of the razor the head broke off. Luckily I have another green Trac II, but they are not easy to come by. Have a great day my friends!

    Hembree Not as pretty smelling

    That is a MAYhem for sure but it looks like a nice shave. I may have to break out my old cartridge razor that has been put up for five years and break out a can of goo. :( It is MAYhem after all.

    Thanks Danny. I'll never go back to canned goo, but there cartridges are good shavers with proper technique!

    An update-I've reached that conclusion. The scent "jumps out more" in cool weather(to me, anyway). Yesterday when it was in the mid 70's, it felt real "heavy" on my face and neck. No doubt the warmth was the reason.

    Great picture and report, Andrew!
    The SHD knots from Maggards are some awesome knots.
