Unknown blades = great shaves, eh? 
In that case, I must be close to Nirvana, as I don't know anything!

The Deets-
Tried this SV sample today. Unfortunately I had already used the aftershave sample with The Fat, so I shaved without an AS. A very nice three pass shave and I am BBS for the win! Wrapped it up with just a post shave lather and that did the trick. Post shave was very nice too. And the missus loves this one. She requested the Desert Vetiver samples for tomorrow. Life is good!

Very nice late morning shave today. And per the missus request, I had Desert Vetiver on deck. An excellent three pass shave and I am BBS for the win! Great shave and the missus loves this one too. Although she still likes the Felce Aromatica better. Hm … who knew she would be high maintenance. Didn’t get much done today, had to make a run to East Texas for a funeral. She was a friend of the family. That’s all I have for you. Life is good!
