Most of my shaves tend to be beautiful in their simplicity. This one however was beautiful in its complexity. The results however were remarkable and I emerged from the Shave Cave feeling like a Wall Street Banker after his $50 Barber Shop Shave. You know the difference between us and them? We can do this whenever we want and it doesn't cost us $50. Have a Great Friday, everyone!The older I get, the better I was

8/8 Geber Weyerberg | Martin de Candre | Semogue 2010 LE | Cade ASB | ELDO Eloge du Traitre
Yesterday Max commented on a Weyerberg in the SOTD, and it had me really excited about today's shave. I finished honing this blade for Rene after he recently rescaled it in cocobolo, and couldn't wait to give it a test shave today. The edge was one of the smoothest I've gotten; sadly, it wasn't as sharp as I think it should be. So, I'll take it back to the stones this weekend to tweak it a bit before sadly sending it back to its true owner...He saw a lawyer killing a viper on a dunghill hard by his own stable; And the Devil smiled, for it put him in mind of Cain and his brother Abel.

I'm in a hurry.

World Championship
Today is the match between USA and Slovakia.
The Consul General of the United States invited us. We take Stars and Stripes with us.
I hope it is allowed to take some pictures.
Stay tuned.
