Results: In preparation for a gala/fundraiser that my wife and I are co-hosting, I used a very special blade for today's shave...Last night, in consultation with my beloved, we unanimously decided that this Pipe razor along with the Morris & Forndran brush, should be the tools for the job for today...This blade is one of seven restored and rescaled by Max...Thank you Max :bow. They were all worth the wait. I for one, am proud to own and showcase this "Maxterpiece" (word of the day :p) in today's SOTD. In fact, each day of this week will feature one of these "Maxterpieces":y. Needless to say, this razor delivered an astonishingly close and extremely comfortable and irritation free shave (of course, it was honed by Max). Now, on to helping my wife in the preparations for tonight. We have a lot on our plate. |
