Great start to the week.

Rene, my what a beauty! I have a Fromm 50 that holds a great edge, if that one shaves anything close I think it would have to get used once a week here! Thanks for sharing. I love those big blades , didn't know Fromm made them 8/8.

Comments: I used the OC side on the first two passes, then the SB side for the touchup and I got a DFS/BBS shave. Just another great Wolfman shave! Soap was very good too! First time trying out this one! It made a nice slick lather, the protection and feel throughout the shave was very good. The menthol was good but I have others that I like the menthol more so this one didnt stand out in that regard! The blade still felt sharp for today's shave and it is quite possible to get another day, maybe two out of it but after 5 days of use, I will change it out and not push my luck on a 20 cent blade! I feel absolutely no irritation at all and one small weepers. A great shave for me!

Please feel free to leave comments on any items us
ed as I enjoy reading them to see what others say about the gear I am using/trying out! Of course, YMMV!

Thx.
