    Welcome to the forum.
    Stropping skills are under rated as far as importance.
    Skin stretching and holding is another one that is not mentioned near enough.

    Spider Robinson finished an incomplete Robert Heinlein book, Variable Star I think it was called. Even narrated it for the audiobook version. I liked it.

    My son and I used to read the Callahan’s Cross Time Saloon series alternatively with Dr. Seuss at bedtime.

    As far as brushes go, I never really thought about getting something other than what I have been using for the last 7 years or so...

    Getting better. This morning, just one little slice by my right sideburn due to loss of focus.

    Tried that sample of Stirling Christmas scent....not my cup of tea. All in all, wonderful shave. I'd give it an 8/10, loss of points all on my technique, not that very nice vintage straight you have me, Gasman.

    In Chicago today....these people damage my calm.
