    (4) That is yet another creative way to use failed products. Kudos...I like the way you think

    (1) That just came off the top of my head. Probably because it looked really good when I got done whipping it up but like some of the reviews I've read since I got it have stated that the lather just sort of evaporates.
    (2) I'm pretty sure it's a 3/8...I'll check tonight when I get home. I got it off fleabay last year from one of the vendors in Argentina(?) that for a while alway's had about a doz or so listed in various sizes and quite a few of the Especial barbas duras whatevers.
    (3) Hope for a miracle...work with what you get.
    (4) Thanks Blade. I try to get my money's worth out of what I buy. It'd have to be really...really bad to just chuck it out. Hey if nothing else it still has a nice scent so....

    Smile Week of January 9 SOTD - Wednesday

    Pre-Shave: Hot shower
    Brush: 22mm Vulfix Super Badger
    Razor: 7/8" Solingen Stainless, 1/4 Hollow, Round Point
    Strop: 60/75 (Neil Miller linen/Premium IV leather)
    Überlather: Al Raz Custom "Cloves/Lavender/Black Pepper" Shave Creme
    Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol)
    Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer
    After Shave Balm: Truefitt & Hill Trafalgar

    Results: Another fabulous shave this AM...This time with the Solingen Stainless. Rogue whiskers stood no chance with this blade. It had been awhile since I had used Al's wonderful creme. This creme is soooooo über-good, that it needs no help from any soap or glycerin. Excellent cushion and glide. This shave was SMOOOOOOOTH as butter !!! I feel BBS and clean.

    Have a FANTASTIC Wednesday gentlemen.

    Default Return of a wedge

    Location: 32°2805N 93°5516W
    Music: Dan Fogelberg
    Prep: Hot Shower & towel
    Preshave: Proraso
    Scuttle: 1.5 Dirty Bird
    Soap: Cella Crema da Barba
    Brush: Vulfix 2233S
    Razor: Frederick Reynolds 5/8 Barbers Notch Wedge
    Balm: Nivea Post Shave Balm
    After Shave: L’Occitan Vetyver EdT
    Result: A wonderful shave. Bob Keyes did a tremendous job removing a couple nasty nicks from this blade and bringing it back to shave ready status. I truly love all my Sheffield shavers and I appreciate the work Bob did to allow me to bring this Frederick Reynolds into my shave rotation.

    + Sorry, but photo failed to upload so I can't share a photo today. +
