    MWF isn't all that. Or I've been so spoiled by slicker better performing soaps. Such as Route 66 @Salty Belle
    Maybe I'll do what @John Ruschmeyer does? Superlather. MWF with Old Spice Lime..

    I learned that Cella is a pretty good performer. Not at the top of my list, but not very far down it either. I do think I like it better than the Razorock Italian Croaps.

    If you like Italian soaps, you might want to try the Vitos Extra Super as well. Inexpensive, slick and protective, and with a nice scent.

    That Chick blades work fantastically in an N1 injector. :)

    That even with a broke down brush the TSD soap lathers like a dream. Definitely the best that I've ever tried.

    That a Pal Injecto-Matic is a very efficient, smooth shaving razor and very fun to use. :)

    Aftershave balms are not needed when using TSD Shop Aftershaves. The aftershave feel is just as good as any balm I have.

    The past three shaves i have excluded my PSO oil and found that my shaves have been even better, i think i'm leaving PSO behind for now. :)

    That VDH Luxury can be finicky to lather. It also doesn't seem to lather up on my face as thick or as well as many other soaps I have. It's a good budget soap I guess. The scent is really nice.

    I also skipped it today and I didn't notice a difference. More testing is in order to determine if I'm completely dropping it.

    Work on the water/product ratio. It's there.

    Me too, going to exclude it for a while Ben. I'm sure i'll throw it in the mix from time to time because i do love variety. :)

    Yeah, I agree. I think it takes a good bit of water, much more than some others.

    Gillette Nacet's will be the only blade that I will purchase from here on out. I will use the remainder of my other blades, but the Nacet works for me in ever razor.

    I feel that way about my Perma Sharps. I still want to revisit the Personna Reds, as I've only used a single tuck of them, but otherwise, I'm pretty much settled for now.
