Happy Thursday Everyone. Another week that is just flying by. I have been shaving daily with the Asylum Rx2 but decided to go back to the Supply Co Pro this morning. I really like this little razor. For me any setting between 3-4 seems to work best. I am making a big dent in the AOS Bourbon shave cream. I hope everyone has a wonderful day.
 
Your last two razors are on the opposite end of the spectrum! Because of the smoothness of the Supply SE - I bought one for my son Aidan, I think it may be better for him than even the Twig was.….
 
Great check in Clint! Keep up the good work on whittling down that soap! Hope you have a good day too 😎👍

Happy Friday Everyone. I am sticking with the Supply Pro again today. The Black Label Blade has continued to work well through 6 shaves. Everything played well together for today's shave. Three passes and touch ups caught the baby with ease. I can get pretty aggressive buffing my trouble spots without fear. Off to work this morning so I can try to catch up. I hope everyone has a fantastic Friday.
 
Thank you Brian and Chris. Happy Friday indeed. I will have to work this weekend but at least it is a sunny Friday here in the ATL.

Happy Saturday, I think. I am off to work at a client site today and likely most of the day tomorrow as well. I am just trying to catch up from the January Covid recovery. I wanted to go back to the Rx2 this morning since I have more time to shave. The extra time really allowed me to focus on maintaining the correct shave angle. The Rx2 has a small sweet spot. I did my part this morning resulting in a fantastic shave. A splash of Proraso Sandalwood aftershave and I am off to the office for the day. I hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday. Take care.

@Graybeard57 I am at least consistent. I enjoyed yesterday's shave so much that I repeated it today with only a different brush. I was rewarded with another outstanding shave. Off to a client's office again today. It will be nice to catch up. I hope everyone has a great Sunday. Take Care.

I can't believe it is Monday already. Working all weekend helped me catch up on a lot stuff. Depending on my progress this week, I think one more weekend of work will allow me to almost completely catch up. I went back with the Supply Pro again this morning. Today was the 7th shave on the blade and it felt a little tired. Just as well, I am ready to move onto some other razors. The shave was another automatic drama free near perfect shave. I absolutely love the Supply Co Pro razor. I hope everyone has a great day. Take care.
