Getting ready for New Years. Can't wait to put 2013 in the books.

Anyway, great morning continued with a great shave. I've not had a blade to my face since last Wednesday. Had a really thick beard and decided to remove it with the edge Rene put on my Allman. Great edge removed the whiskers flawlessly.

I wish everyone a Healthy and Happy New Year.
