Razor: Rockwell 6c Plate 4
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (3)
Brush: Yaqi 24mm
Soap: Wholly Kaw James Town Gentlemen
Aftershave 1: Thayers Cucumber
Aftershave 2: Proraso

Back to the Rockwell 6c again. Was going to get into some samples from Don and when I grabbed my copper bowl I realized I still had remnants from a Wholly Kaw sample and plenty for a luxurious face shave and time to reduce the forest between my head and back. I like a line of demarcation there from time to time and it had been awhile. What a nice smooth shave especially on the back of my neck. Aaaahhhh, sorry.

So yesterday my wife says I need another razor and I surprised say Huh? I mean a blade for my razor (I’d gotten her a Blue Lady Gillette years ago but she only uses it occasionally. She likes the ease of her electric but sometimes uses the Gillette. So today I’m shaving and she calls in, “This is why I like it when I have the time to use the razor. My legs are still smooth the next day too. It lasts so much longer when I shave with it.” I told her ,that’s right and that’s why we need to stock up on supplies like that while we can……………good thing as 3 mail calls came 30 minutes later and she rolled her eyes.

Have a great day Cadre !!

Only a fuzzy pic of the silky lather
 
I am loving your psychological warfare on your wife. It seems to be working because you haven't turned up missing yet!
 
Glad the missus enjoys the lady Gillette!

Are there any razors more suited to a wet environment? My wife keeps her disposable just hanging in the shower 24/7. She’s entertained the idea of a DE briefly a couple of times though. What does yours do with her razor?
 
My GF just keeps hers in the shower. I keep an EJ DE in the shower as well. Been there for years. Never been hurt by the water.
 
Great lather pic there.

Forgot to mention that I saw the shave video, congrats!

The stocking up is a valid argument. My wife can see the bottom of her Maca Root tub and wants more. I told her that version was discontinued and they doubled the price of the new.

Aaahhh, more ammunition, Thanks
 
The subtle enablement of SWMBO is a delicate balancing act between success and certain doom that you're pulling off quite wonderfully Dave! Great lather porn pic as well!

Thanks Josh. 32 years of walking that thin line.........

Don't get cocky though...

I hear the moods of that female variety can change with the whiff of a soap or aftershave or EdT that maybe isn't up to snuff...but until that time...kudos!

Not cocky, That's what the "Thin" line is
