Well, bummer about the cracked container, but just slap some duct tape on it.
My thoughts exactly!

...thought of duct tape but when I told the wife I need to go thru it and get another set, it seemed logical to her so who am I to argue when she thinks I need to get more soap and splash
 
that is awesome me and my papaw watched that a ton when I was a kid. I really need to buy it for the nostalgia of the experience. And it is really really funny stuff.

It’s my favorite movie. I watch it all the time!

No STOD Picture as it would be redundant. Only change was the brush as I decided to give the Paladin a day off from it's break in I've been putting it thru. KJ says 3017ing is brutal and it may eventually feel like that. At the moment though, I'll take this kind of brutal. Took my time and payed more then the usual attention to stretching my skin and was rewarded with a much better job on my problem area neck. Daily laziness can leave me less then smooth to the touch on the neck which gets irritated if I spend too much time on it touching up. Stretching the north and south passes left much less for the ATG side to side pass. Pretty sure I'm gonna get thru the bottle of AS before the soap the way I always slop it on but enjoy it too much to care.......they're still making it, so that can be remedied.

Hope the Cadre has a great day and a stellar weekend !!
 
I think the biggest risk to 3017ing GTB, will be how many secret admirers you have when you’re done.

How you liking those Voskhod blades? The reason I ask is that the first few packs I had were good enough for me to place an order for 100. But good grief, the ones from the 100 are terrible for me.
 
No time as I'm rushing out the door. Have speaking assignment next town over. Same as yesterdays shave except a yaqi synthetic and 3rd shave on the Voskhod. GTB for the win. Have a great day Cadre.
 
I'm hearing more and more on these Yaqi brushes...you need to let us know how you feel about them!

It's a good synthetic for cheap money. Same yellowish handle you can see in some of my older pics with a tuxedo Knot $11. They have a High Mountain White Badger but I haven't tried it myself.

Best of luck on the speaking assignment!
I survived, Thanks Chris.
Getting caught up always love you photos as well, Good Stuff

Thanks Dave, I appreciate it.
