Today was my second shave using the beveled cap. I continued to use the Personna blade I started off with, TOBS shave cream and Jayaruh#223 brush. It was another nearly bbs shave, with no nicks, cuts or weepers. A very light touch and a steady hand is all it takes with the beveled cap. Wrapping up my time with the ?, I can say it’s a fine razor, has a nice balance, provides smooth shaves, and would be an excellent daily driver. I especially like the curved cap for its smoothness and efficiency. @twhite , you gotta get these babies into production! Thanks for the opportunity allowing me to use your latest creation. I’ve cleaned it up and I’m ready to send it out to the next lucky member. Who is next on the list?
So whomever is next from me. Let me know I will do one more shave then on to the Next Contestant. Sent from my iPhoneXR using Tapatalk
I really hate to say goodbye to the ?, but it is packaged up and ready to go to @jimjo1031 I do love these pass arounds that Tom so generously hosts, and his creations are just great. However, letting go is the hardest part. I’m waiting for the day I can go to the Tom White Razor Company website and buy my own! Tom, thanks for your hard work, talent and making this happen.

Looks like a winner there Tom, Some fancy machining and holding jigs to make it a beautiful razor IMO.
Great shave today. The angled cap and razor provide an aggressive shave, but a stable shave. The blade is held firmly within, making it a very controllable 2 pass shave.. Very well made, and tight fitting razor. The blade worked fantastically, providing a BBS result. No nicks, cuts, or weepers. Razor- "?" By Tom(@twhite ). Angled Cap. Blade- Gillette 7 O'Clock, Super Platinum. Brush- Handmade by(@jtspartan ). Omega knot. Soap- ARKO stick. Aftershave- Shulton Old Spice.
Same shave as yesterday, except with the Rounded Cap. This seemed less aggressive, a little smoother, and just easier to use. Still a fantastic shave. Razor- "?" By Tom(@twhite ). Rounded Cap.

Yes. I have been following the tracking. Not sure we can do anything. Except wait. At least there is a second one on tour. If we have to, we will finish with one.
I know the feeling. Happens to me at times when a package originally starts close to me. Then it goes further away to a larger Post Office.
It still shows as in transit, with no updates since April 26th. Maybe the delay is related to the Coronavirus and a shortage of postal workers. It’s driving me nuts!
