September 30 Day/Rule Focus Pix & Discussion

Great shave, Jim! Did you join before or after your acquisition of Cheyenne Mountain as a razor storage site?

 

Wonderful shave and photo Jim.

 

Great shave, Perry! I see you posting on SERF now and then. Hope your day goes well and you stay healthy.

 

Thanks, Jeff!
It was all the enabling encountered here the made offsite storage a necessity.

Thanks, Clint!

And we're very glad to have you, Maestro! You're doing a bang-up job hosting in Neal's absence. I thoroughly enjoy most of your posts, with the exception of course, of your tendency to wax on about stinky Tabac and the Veg, but in your case the positives far outweigh any negatives. I'm going on my third and final warning at TSN. My combative nature and the glorification of overpriced Bullgoose Shaving which owns the site has led me into a number of fracases. The true believers over there are a royal PITA. That's all I have to say about that. Just keep on doing what you're doing here my friend. I truly enjoy your posts (i.e. even the stinky ones ).

 

Interesting point!

At times, I wondered if my CT was engineered to run me off.

I even dared the Queen to change it to 'one dumb puk'

For one, I'd miss ya. Be well.

 

Many successful honers have declared 'rocks' to be the 'King' of rabbit holes.

Open wallet, watch money fly.

 

Tuesday's Shave

SEptember Focus

GEM S/S PTFE (2)
The Crazy Badger
Tabac Shaving Soap Stick
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Tabac Aftershave

I've been looking forward to this month's theme/focus. Injectors give me some of my best shaves. On the contrary, I could still benefit from a bit more use of the GEM style razors to improve those shave results. If I don't concentrate on the passes, I will usually get some irritation from the GEMs.

Today's shave was a very comfortable 3 pass performance that left my face feeling excellent. Close attention to the correct angle and pressure lead me to an irritation free shave and a great start to SEptember.

I joined the 30DC in June of this year and the past three months here have been great ones. I really have enjoyed the friendships and comradery demonstrated and developed and I look forward to continuing being a member of the crew here. For most of my almost two years as a member of TSD, I limited my postings to SoS or various other threads. Back when I first viewed this particular thread, I saw mentions of cookies, ice cream, Russian cartels, Japanese Yakuza and some lady named Helga... I wasn't sure I could survive jumping right into the mix at that point. However, I did see the benefits of the original spirit and goal - achieving better shaves. So, here I am now - my shaves are better.

 

Man do I hate the Mach3.

If carts were all there was, Dorco 6. Better pivoting mechanism IMO.

Mach3 was crushed in my throwdown. I still keep the last ones I bought to remind myself every once in a while.

Hope you like them more than I did.

 

Excellent opening post, Joseph!

 

Outstanding shave and photo, Clint!

 

Thank you, James.

 

Fantastic shave lineup and results, Jeff!

 

Thanks, Clint. 100% concur.

 

Thank you, Joe.

 

Nicely done, Pierpaolo.

 

Hear, hear!

 

Superb.

 

Superb shave and photo, Mark!

 

Thank you, Andrew.
