Hey Bill,
Plain maybe, but definitely classy. Interesting soap too. Eagerly awaiting to hear back from you later this week.

Hehehe...I love this Bow and yes, Max certainly knows his scales and blades.

Glen,
I would have paid good money to see this and a video would be entered into "America's Funniest Videos" and sure to win the grand prize, LOL.

Nice shave and gear

I like the theme. Gave me a good reason to hone up the W&B. I just recieved a vintage Escher and this was the first razor I finished with it. I am very pleased with the results. I am looking forward to learning this stone better.

Code,
Welcome to SOTD (I think this is the first time I've seen your post). Great shave (+ gear too). A French/English mix. I like it. Stones are fun to learn. I love my naturals too. Everytime, there's something new to be learned

Thanks Grant. Matt's is amazing too.

Glenn,
Talk about bad timing...But, this Halsted seems to have more than made up for the W&B being MIA. Well done

Bringing the Nancy Boy cream to the forefront here...it really made this an exceptional shave. Undoubtedly (for me) one of the slickest, thickest creams available - like warm yogurt on the bristles.

Oooooh Yeaaaaahh. I love NancyBoy. Nice lather. One of the first cremes I got and still love (despite the name). Glad to see there's someone else thinking the same.
