    Today I used my no name Soligen razor. It was a nice two pass shave.

    My G. Johnson will be my daily driver for the next five days. I'm heading to northern Michigan in search for morels and fly fishing for trout. Not so sure about cell/internet availability but I'll try to stay connected with y'all:)

    My buddy wants to give me his straight. He had it cleaned and honed but I can't take it. I had to give up using my Dovo Bismarck 5/8 because my nerves will no longer allow me to use it safely. :(

    I'm sorry to hear that. How long did you straight shave, before you had to quit?

    Jeff, I know you had to give up straights some time back. It must have been a tough decision. I know it would be difficult for me.

    If I actually had to pare down the razor herd to a final five, I have a strong inkling this one would survive the cut. ;)

    Tonight's shave was with a freshly honed and prettified razor. I had a super smooth 2 pass shave, that left me BBS. No touchups needed. Great razor.

    It has been a very busy week. This is my first shave this week. So my Frameback had 5 days to deal with. It struggled on the first pass. Seems to flex a bit. On the second and third passes it smoothed out. I finished with a nice shave. Splashed on some Laurie Bay Rum. No I am finally able to unwind.

    Have a great weekend. Do not forget to think of your Mothers this weekend.

    The edge looks a little wonky, is it shaving ok? It might just be the photo playing tricks.
