    Happy Sunday Everyone. I pulled out the Asylum RX for a go this morning. For me this razor feels on the verge of giving me good cut throughout the shave. Fortunately, I only had several weepers this morning. Loading and lathering the MWF was much easier this morning with blooming. A nice splash of Speick and I am ready for the day ahead. Have a great day everyone.

    I guess the Asylum is well named….:eek:

    I ordered some combs yesterday from https://kentbrushes.com/. Kent shave soap (assume it is MWF) is offered for about $7 a puck with a 10% off coupon code. Even with shipping, this would be a good place to pick up a few pucks if one needs to increase the strategic stockpile.

    I managed to get the combs for about half of what they'd cost via Amazon. I didn't get any Kent soap, as I'm trying to work down my current soap inventory.

    I know, I know...I'm a hillbilly comb snob. :D

    I’ve read that Kent is MWF soap as well. Many on the UK shave forums say the consistency between production batches is better with Kent.

    I think the Asylum Rx is too much for me. It just might need to go.

    I have a bunch on the way, Paul. I'll send you a couple. You still live behind the Piggly Wiggly?

    Yes...very close to there. My Kent is the orange small pocket comb, but it'd be nice to get others. Thanks.

    While the DG brush is soft on the kisser, it's not scrubby enough to easily load soap.
    Note to self: more boar brushes...
    The Sunday Shaver is so cool and fun to use. Easily removed all traces of stubble.
    One of the great mens' fragrances, Td'H. This is a flanker, The Parfum.
    Scuttlebutt says it's closer to the original iteration of the EdT, than today's formulation.
    Whatever...Primo likey.

    Monday already. Weekends are just too short. A least I was able to get a wonderful shave to start the work week. The shave was quick, efficient and drama free which is just my preference.

    Didn’t shave at all this weekend, so there was a full 72 hrs worth to mow down. Everything worked as it should. The Goodwill really is a nice shaver.

    The good news is that this is a fine soap; the even better news is that it is a small puck. :D
