Knee replacement surgery went good but I blew out some stitches yesterday during PT so I'm flat on my back for the next 4 days. This is from Wed. shave. I'll post another pic of today's shave later. Have a good one.

Max, you're right. Blue you can get loose again & red also but is more difficult unless heat is used but we don't want to use heat on a straight razor, at least not there. If you never want it to loosen up again then the GREEN is the one for that!

Might as well divide that into 2 groups as I know it.

Group A ~ Real bikers & wannabe's

Group B ~ Those that have been down & those that are going down.
