    Proraso PreShave
    Zenith Boar
    WK Fougere SC
    Feather Artist DX Pearl
    Feather Artist Pro Guard
    Blackland Dart
    Gillette Wilkinson Sword
    WK Fougere AS


    Been almost 3.5 months since holding the Feather DX. Last time was semi disastrous (using Artist Club Pro blade), 3 weepers on the right cheek and gave up.

    Today, shaved 75% of my total area using the Feather DX and Pro Guard blade with no problems. All right handed. I'll work towards some left hand as I gain confidence. I can do left handed with the DE handles, but was shaking with the DX. Didn't attempt under nose or chin. Flats of my face and left neck were near DFS like I can do with the Dart on a first pass. I used A LOT of the Proraso PreShave and face lathered the WK over the top. Slick as snot on a doorknob...but it worked.

    Used the Dart on the second pass and under the nose and chin. Not a single weeper today from either setup. I'm pretty stoked.

    The WK was a great purchase last week from BaylorGator. Love this aroma, and wifey does too. The Zenith Boar...going to try and do it justice in some images for May.

    Hope everyone has a fantastic day!

    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    EDRIO #56 Schick Injector J1
    Personna PTFE Injector blade(2)
    WWB Jungle Ebonite(26mm, Frigate Class)
    PAA Pineapple Bay Rum soap and AS

    Wonderful shave today compliments of the PAA Pineapple Bay Rum. One of the things that I love about PAA is that it performs wonderfully in a warm scuttle and doesn't break down due to the heat. The warm lather was awesome on chilly and foggy spring morning. I got some of the lather on my hands and it made it kinda difficult to hold on to the razor it was so slick. Three passes, no drama, near BBS shave. i went a little heavy with the after shave and my wife commented on how strong and overpowering the scent was. It has calmed down a little now but I can still smell the Bay Rum quite clearly. Have a great day my friends!

    Hump day!!
