It looks like I'm going to have to put the Pinaud Clubman and the Lustray Coachman on the back shelf. My DW complains about the horrible smell every time I use it so to keep the world a pleasant place I will forgo using these from now on. (This means I can get into the "nicer" (re-more expensive) EDC and ASL with impunity!) LOL

My thoughts exactly

Now you're talking about some real ADs! If you want a few suggestions to get yourself started, I'm happy to oblige!

A great shave today with a new razor - Thiers Issard 6/8, hollow ground, mirror polish, thumb rest, and inverted square point.

I've got some fun ideas for tomorrow...

LOL, I would like to go crazy with the EDC/ASL AD's but I know there will still be repercussions! I'll have to pick and choose carefully. First I'll have to clear out some of the existing ones. LOL I appreciate the help though.

That's one beautiful TI Dan .

You know, I just couldn't wait for tomorrow...

I'm showing off, I know. Just received two new razors today and, uh, as long as I've got the camera out...



This one is the Thiers Issard Silver Wing II with rams horn. It's a 5/8 mirror finish. I also recently purchased the Mitchell's Wood Fat Shaving Soap - I did try that today and enjoyed it. It dried up a bit on my face, so I had to re-lather a bit more than usual, but all in all, no real complaints.
