Sunday 5/3
- Penchetta Penworks Redwood Burl Silvertip
- Ingram Menthol S/C
- 7/8 W&B "Celebrated Hollowground" Barber's Notch
- Thayer's A/F Original
- Spanish Floid Vigoroso
Result: DFS today. A noticeable difference between the older W&B "Hollowground" and the newer hollow ground razors. Maybe it would be considered a 1/2 hollow, now? Love the Ingram's, and the Floid Vigoroso is a nice compliment to it....both nice and mentholated.

Result: Decided to try ATG today....dumba$$! Didn't like the English Leather A/S...left my face sticky afterward. Rinsed it off and used the W&S since that's what I had in my work bag...
