Maggard Limes & Bergamot today. 20 seconds to load the Thater Silvertip. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Perma-Sharp Super still in the Red Tip. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Fine Platinum.

Excellent shave this morning. These MeiBner Tremonia soaps are a delight to shave with but honestly I find them lacking in post shave feel. That last statement pertains to me, YMMV.
Have a good one.

 

Clint that blade is out there! Looks aggressive.

 

Fantastic picture!

 

It's not so much the blade gap but the exposure outside the top cap. I did a detailed write up on the 30 day thread. The short story is I got cut by the razor pretty good. It's been a long time since that has happened.

 

Nice I've been watching the Brutalt Bra soap ever since it came around, I'll put it on my list for 2017.

 

FRIDAY
Keeping with the C-MONs this week, broke out the vintage 'Cadillac' for this morning's shave. MdC lather and 4711 finish. Excellent shave!
Have a great Friday, all!

I decidedthat 12 days in a row with the same blade was enough. I was still giving nice shaves but I could feel a reduction in smoothness. Today I loaded a new Feather Professional blade and proceeded to get an extremely nice DFS two pass shave while removing the top of a scar. This blade is so sharp that I hardly felt it. Styptic powder wouldn't stop this one and I had to rely on tissue and pressure. Even with this little error, I was very happy with my shave and am really starting to like this razor.
