The lather was Sandalwood galore. Lovely in every respecthttp://badgerandblade.com/vb/images/...ys/001_wub.gif. It felt good rubbing this stuff all over the face. It was so good that even if I didn't take blade to face, I would have considered this s successful exercise. But, I didn't do that and this JC delivered a very smooth and satisfying shave http://badgerandblade.com/vb/images/...l/thumbsup.gif. 2 days growth wiped out like yesterday's news...You could even call this a "whisker genocide" and not feel bad. Off to the salt mines:tu.
