Single Edge SEptember!

Had to use the Shovelhead again this morning just to confirm yesterday's shave.  Yep, still gave me an awesome shave! 

Although I will say that despite how great the shave was this morning, these GEM-type razors are a bit annoying when trying to shave under the nose. 

Nice and easy shave with the shiny chrome Hydro-magic (thanks Dave!) and a sChick on its 8th outing. Black Tie #13 and the Supernova mixed badger and boar brush.
