Hey John,
You dawg!!! what a nice Maxtom (Max Custom) you got there buddy. She is a beauty. Let me also say that it is a rare and wonderful treat to have you post on SOTD and judging from the description of the shave, one would be a fool not to get one of these, LOL. I am happy to say I am no fool, LOL.

PS: wife and I will be visiting Max in Vegas mid May and hope we can have the pleasure of seeing you again

Béla,
Love that Iwasaki my friend. I miss mine. Haven't used it too much...I should take her out for a spin one of these days.

But better, LOL. Glad you like it. Al's formulation has changed somewhat in the past several months. The dense creme is more like a soft soap. I think he is making more of the fluffy ones of late because of requests.
