Re-use yesterday's dried-up lather. Able to revive into a beautifully thick, creamy, and slick lather...awesome!
Shave with razor paired with the blade was very smooth and comfortable. Able to do 3 multiple passes for a between bbs to dfs result but at the expense of 2 weepers. Excellent shave including post & aftershaves. Rating 9.5/10

What a smurfing great shave today. I had a plan to return to the lime, but a smurf of a gent saw fit to drop something else in my lap. The lather delivered smurfly slickness and a potent aroma to be smurfing sure. BBS and some odd aftersmurf effects.

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant weekend.

The countdown continues! 25 days until we put the "Year of Suck" behind us!!

Great shave today!Three pass shave. No touch up, just WTG, XTG and AGT..The results were what they were and you know what, with the exception of a small area on my lower neck, it was a fantastic BBS shave!

Hope you have a great day!

Another great shave. The brush was perfect for the soap, making thick, rich, fragrant lather. This was my first use of the H&S 17-4, which gave me excellent auditory feedback just like the titanium version but a bit smoother, almost as smooth as the Paradigm 17-4, providing a very easy 3-pass BBS shave. The razor head mated perfectly with the Triad handle. My only wish is that Frank made a lavender EdP or EdT to go with the splash.
