A summertime shave for the begining of autum, lovely cool refreshing scents as the colder weeks start to approach, I think we all start to move slowly towards warmer and more spicy scents, maybe we do this in a subconscious way, now the shave two pass with minor touch up super smooth lovely.

A damn fine shave though. This is one of my smallest razors, but I really enjoy it.
It's 11 PM here and I've spent way too much time on SRP already tonight, still have things to do before bed.[/CENTER]

I'm Excited for you Grant! It sounds like it is going to be a blast. Have fun and take lots of pics please!
