Excellent Shave Mark! I have a couple of the Super Adjustable myself and really like they way they shave! I used to think they would shave the same as a Slim...but no sir. A slight difference...but a great shaver!

Agreed Don! I was very surprised at the difference between the Sup-A and the other adjustable razors I use. I can set the Fatboy and Slim to a 5 or 6 and get a great shave. I set the Sup-A to a 5 for the first shave last Friday and the thing nearly ate my face!!

Single digit wind chills this morning.

Sounds like a good day to go back to bed

Someone really should come out with the "Face-Eater" razor. I'd buy it just to see if it lives up to the name....and to give to some unsuspecting sucker if it did.

That would be the Mothers of Invention’s Weasel Razor.

Good morning Cadre! Hope everyone had a pleasant night. Had practice with the country band last night. We have a show coming up this weekend and I'm excited about getting back out and playing live again. Will try to post up some video from the show. Great shave this morning. The Phoenix Shaving soaps continue to blow me away. I was a "tallow or GTFO" guy for years and these soaps have changed my entire point of view regarding vegan soaps. They're fantastic!

Hope everyone has a great day!

Good morning everyone! It's finally warmer here today but along with the (slightly) higher temps came more rain. Oh well.. I can deal with the rain better than the cold temps. Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Enjoy the rain. I had no temperature yesterday morning. (0 degrees) it did actually warm up to 18. Today it was a balmy 7 when I left for work.

YIKES!! ❄

I’m still going to complain about 40 degree weather.

We’re still severely lacking rain out here. Hoping it picks up soon or it’ll be another rip roarin fire camp this summer.

I got nothing this morning. Tired.. Was awakened this morning at 12:45am with an equipment alarm. Gonna be one of those days...

But! As it says in my sig, "There isn't much that a good shave and hot cup of coffee can't fix". So I've had the shave so now all I need is coffee....
