The Day? More snow overnight, total here over 18 inches / 20CM. Rain expected! Me?..bummed! The shave? good.

Prep: Hot Shower
Razor: Thiers Issard, 6/8, Ram's Horns Scales
Strop: Illinois 827, SRD Prem. I
Brush: AOS Fine Badger
Cream: C.O. Bigelow
A/S: Floid Blue
Result: This razor came in the mail yesterday, and I decided to simply strop the heck out of it before the shave. All I can say is WOW. Seriously, this is the first new razor (out of 5) that was truly shave ready. Nice BBS shave after two passes. So, yes, I am pleased with this purchase, I hope this is the last razor I purchase for me, because for me, seven is more than enough. Enjoy your Friday!

Yeah, that's what you think... But then RAD slips in and one day you open the drawer and you wonder why there's 30 of them and why your wife keeps nagging you about draining your account... Originally Posted by IamSt8ght

Yeah, I started to get caught up with RAD, and before I knew it I had 14 shave-ready razors in my rotation. Sold most of them, and now, with two new ones, I'm back at 7. I'll guess I'll see if RAD kicks back in. Originally Posted by sashimi

Thanks! No, but I do like to read from time to time. I think if I put my mind to it I could maybe write a passable poem or short story, but I'm too impatient to stick to one thing for more than a day, really... Originally Posted by Leatherstockiings
