Well...scale is broken (clean break which I superglued) by the toe area of one of the scales...It's gotta be changed. My wife thinks so too, which is motivation enough for changing :D.

Ohio Gozaimasu Bill san...nice SOTD buddy :tu.

Loving the Japanase theme...Daruma doll and all...and not to mention the Nakayama (nice stone) the blade is resting on. What is missing is the Bonsai...

Beautiful blade Brad :tu...sorry for the naive question, but what is the size of it? It looks like a 13/16 or so?

Justin: way to go my man :bow

You sure it was after the shave and not during? :roflmao

Between the Campbell's chicken noodle soup yesterday and the Yellowtail today, I think Max' thread is slowly turning into an "FDOTD" (Food...

Jimmy...you always have the coolest gear :beer1:. Next, we'll probably see a ultra rare razor next to one of your Y/G Escher that no one has seen before :D

Wowww...first and foremost, I must say that you've got a very nice Fili :bow. You inspired me to want to shave with one of mine soon.

Second...once a week shave? That must be torture to wait for...

1) I am glad that you are hooked on the uberlather :tu

2) I am sorry about the Othello's shave ...Is it the razor or could it be the bevel/edge that's not sharp/polished enough?

Better shave...

Welcome to the uberlather club ;). Ain't it great? The thing is, it doesn't take much (time or material) to make it either.

:gl:

I LOVED your SOTD today. I was rolling on the ground when I saw that Campbell's soup thingy. I think this picture should end up in the Hall of Fame of some kind. I really, really enjoyed it. :y

You are "DA MAN" Monroe :bow...I like your approach, very scientific - one variable at a time. That's the way to do it right. It allows you to nail down what works much faster.

Can't wait for the...

Thanks...but, alas it's not vintage...Found it at Target. $12.99 or something. This one has a greenish tint to the glass. They also carry the blue-ish tint which I am thinking about getting soon. It...

Liking the setup Monroe :tu

Brush: 22mm Vulfix Super badger
Überlather:...

I knew it could be done! I just knew it man :idea:. I am going to have to try this. Mixing Williams' (or other soap) with Campbell's chicken noodle soup...I know the lather will be good enough to eat...

That's what I was having trouble remembering ;)...now, I am straight (pun intended) with my facts.

Thanks :)

Nice scales...very chic :nj

I could have sworn that I have seen that razor someplace...I think here on SRP...Now, I may be totally off the mark and loony here (memory is not what it used to be) ...

Thanks Matt...I actually purchased a vintage one (W&B Bow razor) and it's with Max being rescaled (with some minor restore) :). Can't wait to get it and see what kind of magic Max performed on...

Nice W&B Matt...is that a hollow or wedge. Can't tell

Hey Brad,

I know, I have one too :)...It is a good brush, but I prefer Thäter and the Shavemac...but the Vestivia is a good second go-to brush...for me, at least. Recently, the tips seems to be getting a bit...

Nice brush...How do you like your Vestivia?
