I look good, feel good, and smell great. Have a great day, Cadre!

You have a good one too Bruce! How’s The Lounge coming along? See bottom yet?

Not yet. Another couple of days, if not more. Good stuff.

Good shave this morning. Sitting here waiting for winter to end. A few more weeks to go. Have a great day, Cadre!

A few more weeks to go.

Is it almost that time already?!

Finally a little doughnut hole has appeared in the soap. We'll see how long it lasts.

The donut hole appearing is just another way the soap mocks us, fooling us into thinking it’s almost done

Is that the only razor you have?

Is that the only razor you have?

No, my others are:

1. Schick G5 injector (I think - green handle)
2. 1946-7 Gold Aristocrat
3. C1 Red Tip Super Speed

I've been using the Vector since its arrival about 13 months ago.

That would make a nice rotation IMO, a little variety is a good thing.

Pleasurable shave today. Soap disappearing fast, as there is minimal buildup inside the tub. Hope everyone's had a great day.

Same soap, new blade. Rainy and snowy overnight, but roads are fine, thanks to our unsung heroes on the road crews, much like @Maryland998. Have a great day, Cadre!

You like us (snow plow guys)now. But when your mailbox gets whacked. That may change things

Ours is at the curb, in harm's way, but no damage in 23 years. So far, so good.

Could have gotten a few more shaves from the Stirling, but yesterday it broke into pieces, so I added it to My Special Blend 5 (MSB5).

Iron Throne is new to me. Normally, I don't like minty soaps, but this one has just a hint of mint, making it a very fresh scent with depth. CBL products never disappoint, and IT is no exception. Great lather with cushion and nice postshave feel. I'm definitely going to enjoy this soap.

 

[GearNoir]

Yes...build the MSB! Let it grow!

Rocking the Iron Throne, which continues to reveal itself. Today I caught a whiff of bay rum, which was a pleasant surprise. Who knows what tomorrow may bring? Enjoy your shaves!

Didn’t make anyone walk the plank did you?
