A great shave and a great smell....:D
DE again, but at least this was the last shave before I can throw away the blade without feeling guilty. Tomorrow I start testing the results of last night's honing :D

Same as yesterday, mostly. Today I didn't strop before tackling the goatee area on my last pass, and probably should have. I love this little Clarke & Son; it is a full hollow, but is very stiff for that grind and takes a lovely edge.

A jump back into the COLD COLD shower and lay down in front of the fan for a bit.
WONDERFUL shaving experience. I let myself get 3 days of growth so I'd have a bit of fun with it. I almost ended up shaving my goatee clean off, it was such a joy to use. Gary delivered everyone's gift to me shave ready and rarin' to go.
You guys rock. This razor won't be in rotation until after the wedding, it will be set aside and reserved to be used the morning of the big day. Thank you all, once again! I'm humbled and delighted!

Gary, Im glad you like TAZGMSC aftershave. It is nice stuff. I only use that or my skin food anymore. Glad you like your new razor too :) :)

I just shaved with the M&Y. I was almost ready to give up on it, but after another run on the Norton after doing all of my regular shavers, it's finally reaching its potential. There will be some more fine-tuning but it gave me an irritation-free decent shave. Tomorrow, Butler is up for another round of testing.

Got the W&B from Joe Chandler a few days ago. This was my first W&B, and I was impressed with the balance and nimbleness of such a large heavy blade. Didn't have to strop mid-shave, which is always a good sign.
