Rob, you've been gone for a long time, my friend. I'm glad to see you again.

Always good to see you Igor! I was just looking at your razor with the SICILY arrangement, you went old skool GILLETTE on us?!

Yes, I decided to try vintage razor's. I bought a few different ones (about 30 pieces). Some are still on the way. There is a lot of trouble with them ... I disinfect, clean, polish, I make handles for some. But, I'll tell you, they are worth my effort. Many of them work very well.

Hello all! Hope you're having a great weekend.

Great shave this morning. It's "The Masters" weekend in Augusta, GA so I broke out the Denton Majik "Masters of the Green". Wonderful scent. Kinda similar to Creed GIT but not a full-on dupe. Wonderful lather built with the new RazoRock "Chubby" ST! Slick, thick, yogurt-like consistency with lots of cushion. Two passes (+ touch-up) and I finished with a splash of Pinaud Clubman ASL and and several sprays of Tom Ford "Beau de Jour" EdT.

Hope you have a great day.

The brush has a bit more scritch than I like, but it certainly builds lather well. The original 71-4 is one of the smoothest razors I have used, especially with the excellent old blade.
