Shave Quality
The Schick Dial (M-Type - see this link:
Schick Injector Razors) is a great shaver. Sunday's shave was really amazing. Today's shave with it was a little rough, but still two passes for full on BBS. Saturday's shave with the Genco Master Barber, that I purchased from
@CBLindsay, really did wonderful things to my face. The good shaves just keep coming for this guy.
Gear
Genco straights are really top notch steel. I am very happy with the ones that I have.
The Schick adjustable Injector is great stuff.
The Silk Smoke knot in my TSC member brush makes great lather.
All my gear is making me really happy.
Other Thoughts
Work is good. I am making progress on my crochet projects. I am not making much progress on my knitting projects, however. Everything is going well right now. Happy days.
Thank you for reading and commenting on my journal. I hope you have a great day and stellar shaves, Cadre.
