I see me. You don't see me? Daaaaaave!!!

Awesome about the TF. I'm thinking I might be ok with a stable full of just TF and Penhaligon's

I'll just have to keep picking up used seconds when I can. Chris took good care of me with the TF

Ya, nothing beats a cadre bargain, but I was able to get mine at 37% "off", so I was ok with that.

You know, on the last radio show they talked about a meet-up. They'll need to get a big room. Not because there will be a lot of us. But there will be a lot of scent that needs some room to spread.

2019 Shave # 122 ( 175 Consecutive Shaves )
Razor: Game Changer .84/Titanium Handle
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (7)
Brush: Rubberset 400/Maggards Synthetic
Soap: A&E Grecian Horse
Aftershave 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla
Aftershave 2: Nivea 2 in 1 Aftershave
Fragrance: Pierre Cardin

So Grecian Horse is one of those scents you hear or read about and think you should get but never seem to. Got one on a BST and let me say. "GET IT" Don't know what it's a clone of but love the scent. Used a new Titanium handle which has more heft than aluminum but less than SS. Not sure how I feel about which I prefer but do like it so now I know what they feel like. Shave now and feel great after using the Nivea 2 in 1 Aftershave. I should use it more often. Studying to do but will be on and off today. Have a great day Cadre !!

As shocking as it may be, I have only tried samples of A&E etc. I need to get a tub of something soon.

I enjoy the 4 I have. Order of preference currently
1) Revolution, my favorite
2) The Novelist
3) Grecian Horse
4) Orange Verte (nice but Chris' Orange Dirt is better)

Sooner of later I want the Signature Set

More usage of the Ti handle required! I’ve shied away from getting a Ti handle/razor so far, just because I think I’d feel the same way. I like the heft of SS too much.

 

[NurseDave]

But just saying something is titanium increased the cool factor x10!

Had breakfast with my younger brother yesterday as he was driving thru the area. Lives an hour south of me but is all over the country and world for work. Told me he may be going to South Korea soon. Drives me nuts he won't shave more than once or twice a week !!!

 

[GearNoir]

South Korea? Is he a contractor?

No, works for some German Company that measures things with radioactive material. Like flow levels thru a pipe etc etc etc. He's explained it but all I heard was, " Wah wah wah"

You guys have the same haircut!
