Summary: Yesterday I received a parcel and to my surprise when I opened it I found this gorgeous brush specially made for me. Not only was the brush a surprise but I have finally earned my new nickname .

Haaaa. That's too funny Max (sorry, Razor Pimp), LOOOOOOOL. Congrats on the new brush buddy.

Jamie,
Every one should have a benchmark shave against which to judge all other shaves. But one must keep in mind that this benchmark is fluid/dynamic and ever evolving. Great job buddy

Great choice Matt, but I wonder if you and Max had a mind meld this AM, LOL

Wow, this blade is super thin (thinnest grind I´ve got) and super sharp/smooth and it´s just perfect!

Mikael,
You keep taunting me with this Les +++ Croix. I really love it. Great choice for today (or any day)

Congratulations on your niece's christening. A very special occasion indeed, which is reflected in this shave. Have fun

Very true...In fact, I know Max by this (and another) nickname, not his real name, LOOOOL. You don't really want to know my nickname (only Max knows it), LOOOOL.

Nice choice Jim...What kind of Rose shave soap and creme did you use? It certainly sounds divine. One can never OD with Rose, LOL.
