I need to try Jermyn Street. For some reason I remember hearing that it’s onky available as a cream and not a soap...but I could totally be thinking of something else. So far my experiences with creams have always fallen a little short so I prefer soaps.

Lol, I had a double day in January so we're tied up now other Dave
Funny thing is I said I wasn't going to go for the 365 shaves this year. But now tracking how many days in a row I've shaved means if I skip one, that whole counter starts over. So it's almost worse!The Nurse Man is saving up shaves for those “too busy” days to come! Nice!

As soon as Rich mentioned the Super Speed my heart sank. I should have used this long ago. This was part of my Christmas present from the Major. It is now out and on display and will get used now. I realize I also have a few other razors that are in the drawer I used to keep all my razor in that haven't been used for quite some time.
I have to say, I was surprised by this one. much more solid and efficient than I was expecting. I really got no blade feel, but it seems really efficient. No chatter, just the sound of hair removal. It is a short little guy, but
I find I don't really notice unless I'm specifically thinking about it. It worked well with the Feather. I'm assuming this is another one of those that's a mild razor and needs a nice sharp blade and wouldn't perform as well with a more mild blade.

Well, my shelves would look pretty bare with one razor and one brush.Great report Dave! See, who needs a fancy shmancy Timeless when a well weathered SS will do?

I wonder if they make shaving props...like those furniture stores do for books, TVs, and computers...
