    In case you feel alone, I had a lousy shave today. Great razor, recently honed by a master and then a second that was fine yesterday, then a DE and even that was't great. Same prep, same lather, same weather and water

    IT MUST HAVE BEEN ME

    Tomorrow will be fine. Just wanted to let you all know we all have days like this, even after almost 2 years.

    So today was DE weekend for me. I went back to my Muhle R89, seems I forgot how to use it. Had a really bad shave, 3 passes I needed a 4th but my skin wasn't feeling too great so I just gave up, left the quite a bit of stubble.

    No blood = good shave. Whiskers will be there tomorrow to tempt their fate!

    I also had a bad shave from my DE this morning. I am on fire around my lips. I got my str8s back from honing in the mail today (thanks Lynn!!). On to a new chapter on my next shave.

    I'm blaming it on the near full moon.
    Razor burned myself something fierce on the second pass and it was all my fault...

    And TC your post nearly brought me tears...
