    I've really been enjoying it, Perry. :). And as for seasonal scent classification, for me I didn't see a problem with this until I tried Clubman Original on a hot humid day here. Ended up sweating Clubman profusely. Could have been worse, I suppose...it could have been Texas On Fire instead. Oh, and thanks for the happy birthday wish :).

    Congrats @SharptoothC and @clint64 for this year's first Shavey nominations!

    A few guys have mentioned they are watching from the sidelines this month (@KenH, @jluc, @PLAla, and potentially others). If you are in for the "Mild Mannered Shaver Award" (i.e. PIF), be sure to nominate yourself in the SHAVEY THREAD. Same goes true for new 30DC participants in May and folks shaving with a "new to you" single edge blade. You gotta nominate yourself, as the Academy members do not wish to scour this thread looking for this information and making presumptions about who's "in". (They're a bit too uppity and high brow for that kind of menial task.)

    The B1 is just such a cool looking razor. Sounds like a great plan for the month of May.

    MAYhem. Ok, I’m going to give my CJB Pain Stick an honest go. Have used it for a single pass twice, and both times gave myself sizeable cuts. So, I’ll give it a go, and will give my most aggressive Injector, the PAL Injectomatic, some time as well. We’ll see how that goes for a start. Will be travelling for the first few days of the month, so these will wait for a bit.

    Thanks, Andrew! I got this brush in a PIF from @Drygulch a while back. It works really well.

    I remember someone doing a handheld blade shave last year for MAYhem. I've been planning to attempt it this year since then.

    A bit of a delayed start to MAYhem, as I will be travelling for work for the next few days. I’ll give an open blade ample opportunity to cut me upon my return.
    Awesome shave this morning, as good as it gets for a 2 pass’er. Love the Seville and this MonoBilt is the standard by which I now compare all DEs. 2 passes and a little touch up and I am smooth. I trust that the team from work that gets to travel with me for a 4 hour drive will appreciate the CL.
    Have a great day all!

    If your plan for MAYhem is to blind us with a stunningly beautiful setup, mission accomplished, Jason!
