Shave On !!!!

Gillette disposable razor
LaToja canned foam

The airline lost my suitcase...
Had to go out and buy this in order to look respectable for the congress here in Granada, Spain. All my straights are sharper than this.
Ah well, let’s hope the suitcase turns up soon.
I’d hate to lose the gear that’s inside.

I am sorry to hear this. I travel extensively, and only travel with a lower cost DE Razor, and a Gold Dollar 1996 Acrylic because it's an amazing Straight Razor for under $10 American. Plus, if the airline LOSES it, I really don't care. I hope you get your bag back and all is in good order. Enjoy the Congress.

Yea, that's a draw dropper, spectacular.....been a long, long time since a razor gave me goose pimples, but that one is both a "gobsmacked" and a, "Lord Thunderin' Jesus".....what a beauty.

Been using this honking beast for a week or so, after touching up on the Nani 12k, shaving nirvana!

Have a Great Wednesday Gents!

Brush: C2
Lather: Cold River Soap Works - Madman's Bouquet
Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel
Nourishing: Lagerfeld

Result: Very impressed with the game changer. It shaved me as close as my Asylum RX or even one of my straights. Very smooth and glass BBS.

Wow, Max! That is a bit of a surprising statement. I had heard that even the .84 base-plate was still fairly mild, not like the .68, but not very aggressive.
I guess I'll have to try one once they become available, again.
