You are personally responsible for feeding my RAD.
Nice scales, what are they made of?
Oh, גם לך
That razor is quite nice.
I enjoy shaving with a frame back. Seems that to me, the blade is a bit less forgiving than most. Do you find they flex less also?Last edited by Maximilian; 03-25-2011 at 06:18 PM. Reason: tidy

Prep:Hot Shower
Brush:TGN 24mm custom
Strop:SRD PIV English Bridle
Cream:BRV CarrieM
Razor:Clauss
After shave: AOS Sandalwood ASB
EDT: Polo Blue
Result: I love the scales on this razor, yet I fear they are done for. I opened the blade this morning and there was a brown line down the length of the blade and little spots that look like the start of “Devil's Spit” (cell-rot). I'll be popping the scales off to get it away from the blade tonight. The shave was great, just a bummer to have to toss just a beautiful set of scales...not a big fan of Celluloid for this reason.

Friday
I really like this soap, like the MdC soap it has it´s own very distinct scent and it´s an excellent preformer and together with the Tubby it produced tons of lovely lather. My jaw is unbelivable clean, when I rub my hand against it it´s like touching the inside of my palm
I´m sorry, I missed the Freaky Friday theme but I saw it to late.
