    Good morning!

    Outstanding shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Just the lightest tickle from the alum.

    Have a great day!

    Wonderful three pass with the Valet VC4. I am not sure how many shaves I can get with the FHS blade but this was shave number 7. Perhaps I will try one more. Alum report was almost nonexistent. My face feels smooth and clean.
    Have a great day gentlemen.

    Nice, Joe. Are you stropping the blade? Did your VC4 come with the strop?

    You Heard Right. Leaves my skin after a Shave soft and Supple. They can WORK on the Scent. But it Dissipates Quickly.

    Great shave, Myles! You’re not the only one who’s a fan of Aristocrat shaves, Evan and Gary are also in your camp!

    2 November 2020.

    Going with my gut this month. I'll use some gear I don't often use. I will use shave creams instead of soap this month. I have a new brush I want to use too.

    Supply: Single Edge 2.0
    Blade: Schick (1)
    Brush: Grandfather's w/24mm Gelousy SHD Bulb (A1) - Specially Treated 2 Band Finest Badger Knot - APShaveCo.
    Soap: Cream Lea Classic
    Aftershave: Maol Marlogue Wood
    Bowl: Symmetrical Starry Night Dottie

    Got a little snow last night. It is very windy so it may stay for awhile.
    Wonderful shave today with the Supply SE razor. I'm going with shave creams all this month.
    Have a great week.

    Great shave, Doug! The Supply is a great razor. Glad your shave went well! What plate are you using in the razor? Just curious!

    The same thing happened on my last order from Tatara. I think they are using express mail services to avoid Covid delays. I bet the brush looks even better in person. Looking forward to your photos.

    Nice shave Joe! I like the VAS. Using a strop I have 23 shaves on a single blade. It's a fun setup. Keep going.
