From the first to the last pass. The Genco performed without a hitch. The AS and EDT were the icing on the cake. I'm happy.

You enabler you, LOOOL

She's got her share of pits and she shows her age (so do I though) but she is ready to go another couple of generations before giving it up forever. A couple of passes with some touch ups with my DE and I'm good to go for another couple of days. Have a wonderful Sunday men! Go Broncos!! I know, don't say it.

Mike,
What a beautiful and gracefully aged FR. She looks like she's got more than a couple of generations left in her yet. Well done

Polishing cufflinks this arvo.

Razor: Klas Törnblom

Carl,
Nice Klas...Is she too small or that the scales are on the thin side? Well done on a nice shave. Love those cuffllinks too. How many do you have?

I also like this Razor a lot, the design is quite fancy for Dovo, 2 "cut outs" in the scales, decorated spine and the shape of the tang and heel of the blade, combine to make it look very elegant. Shaves great too, what more could I ask for?

EA,
I love that Dovo too. Very elegant indeed. I forget, is she a 6/8"?

Its been a nice weekend. Got a few things done arround the house today. Yesterday we had fish and chips down at Coffs Harbour Jetty and spotted a couple of whales swimming by.
A fantastic shave was a nice way to wrap up the weekend.
I've had quite a few shaves with this Bengall since restoring and honing it but it still holds a great edge.

Grant,
What a gorgeous blade. They are amazing shavers. Congrats. Sounds like you had a wonderful time with family down Coffs Harbour. Whale watching is fun to do.

I called 911 and they are on standby just in case you have a heart attack on mile marker 1, LOOOOOL. Seriously though, have a great run

He still sleeps with all those bears up above his pillow too.

Oh my Grant. Little Jack is not so little anymore...he (and his hair) is growing fast. Beautiful pictures. Tell him my nephews and niece (as well as the rest of family) say hello.

Nice shave yesterday after the day at the mall with the ladies. Watched a full evening of MMA. Looks like another gorgeous day here for a long drive. I'll head up to RW's place this morning for coffee.

Beautiful shave Jeff. Glad you had a good time with the ladies. I don't know though! Going to the mall with the girls? I'd rather have a root canal, LOOL.

Enjoy your coffee with RW (Robert Williams?). It's good to know people in high places, eh, LOL?

Mikael,
I love seeing that DD/Puma. She's such a gorgeous piece of steel. Well done. That British Gillette ain't half bad either.

PS; you'll be happy to learn that I immersed myself in coffee indulgences while in Vegas (well, in the AMs at least)

That's what I like to hear. Great choice of soap Konstantinos. The whole lineup is fantastic.

That's what I like to call a "Cadelicious" shave. Well done D.
