What’s new to you?

Got these two soaps and 300 Astra blades for my birthday.

The Astras are a conundrum... They're the "old printed style", but made in 2021. My stash of the "newer" laser etched are from 2018, for what it's worth. Does anyone know... did they go back to that design?

I haven't had good luck with these 2021 printed Astras. I'm very curious if they have made changes to the blade itself. I'm loving the etched ones, though.

Still, considering I have around 580 of them, maybe I'll try these printed ones again. Lol.

(1) First - congrats - pretty cool!
(2) How did I miss that you were in the hospital? Are you ok?
(3) If you are ok, then I think you deserve getting a pretty nurse to give you a shave - including the steamed towel treatment.
 
okay.... Every Gentlemen needs a good pinky ring right? Well how about one with a purpose. I am a gadget guy, hence the watch thing I love engineering and how things are made and function so I though this was pretty cool. Inexpensive, but an addition to EDC. Everyone needs a "letter opener".. With the way the world is today, another level of protection is not a bad thing. All stainless steel, adjustable, and a spring loaded switch... #spygeek #froggigger

:unsure: Wonder if I could shave with this, LOL
