Oh hell ya! You rock that one out Bruce!
I am truly enjoying the Sterrious Shave Peppermint Lime. Great scent and it lathers so nicely. Slick and comfortable. Have to email the producer to see if she is still in the game. Topped it off with the Elvado Wild Mint Lime balm. A perfect combo.
The General was called to action today and I must say another phenomenal shave. I am coming to the conclusion that for DE the AS-D2 is the top choice in the den and the General is the top AC SE. I could easily just keep the two and thin the herd. I would be happy with that. We’ll ponder on that…enjoy your Sunday Cadre and stay safe.

I have four razors which I'll continue to rotate through, though I do have two favorites. I am not a collector; I focus more on the shaves rather than the stuff. However, I insist on quality software. I can tolerate a difficult razor better than a subpar soap or AS.
Agreed though I have 70 razors….I have four razors which I'll continue to rotate through, though I do have two favorites. I am not a collector; I focus more on the shaves rather than the stuff. However, I insist on quality software. I can tolerate a difficult razor better than a subpar soap or AS.
. I didn’t start out as a collector but I have acquired some pretty nice gear as I have progressed along.Mint & Citrus- sounds like a refreshing combo!
Summer all the way with this one. Really good soap though:

I've been mixing Gillette Pure with various Indian citrus creams and can confirm that this combo is a great one! Definitely an awesome summertime blend.
Don't tell Bruce, he panicked when he saw the peppermint!
I repeat my assertion that mint is for candy and ice cream, and maybe a drink or two. I don't put shaving soap in a bowl and eat it, and I don't put candy/ice cream/drink flavors in my shaves! There's a place for everything, sir.

Nice Ed! Any plans or doing a staycation?
A couple days of Staycation and then some local road trips out to Niagara, Peterborough…hit up some antique shops….woohoo!
You guys allowed into the US yet?
Nope not as far as I know. Second shot inbound July 7th! I seriously can’t wait for the Hope of some return to normality 2 weeks past that.

You know how I felt after the second shot? Safe.
You can only bank it for so long.
