Think of it as an investment to maintain (or improve on) your #4 position!Mind you, if my wife catches me buying shaving product rather than home improvements, I'm in big trouble

What is it like under the nose. It looks like the best way to get your hair of is across the grain pass. Many of the YouTube videos, they use another razor to clean up under the nose.I have to say that the shave was so good that at the very least the Leaf will be my number one razor from now on, it even beats my EJDE89 that I've always used as a benchmark. As for the 'archaic' looks of the Leaf, I know what you mean, and that's why I described it as 'steampunk'...I love the way it looks as much as the shave it gives!
Consider it pay back for the 2 TOBS creams arriving this week!That logic stands up to scrutiny
What improves a home more than Shaving ProductsI know Russ but I'm so weak

including the very apt named Sentence with Rockets Johnson.

Very nice shave today, up early and took my time.
A nice lather, slick and nicely scented,
I completed 2 WTG passes with the T-I and on the second pass i completed some XTG strokes where i felt comfortable, leaving me with a SAS result.
I then completed a buffing pass with the ECO to finish BBS.
Confidence is growing and the old muscle memory starting to kick in from my last excursion into straight razor shaving.
I have not used the Floïd post shave products for a while so they were given a run out, very nice and smelling very old school barbershop (to my nose anyway).
Sadly Mrs TC is still not able to move around much so it will be another day of me looking after her instead of taking her out for a special meal, i will have to pull out all the stops later today.
Stay safe and enjoy your day All.
