It's been so hectic it's been hard to get shaves in. Another 3+ day growth shave and another awesome shave. The MMOC is a fantastic razor, it is really working well for me. The Blade is still going strong, LGC is excellent soap. I can;t wait till it becomes part of the permanent lineup next year.

nice handle on that brush, DblDe!

Really great, smooth, slick lather with The Stop Shoppe Austin! The scent is mellow, but very nice. What a shame it's no longer available.

Well, this was a brand new Feather AC Pro blade installed in the AlumiGoose and WOW! Now this is one sharp blade! I am now very much convinced that the blade in the ATT SE1 for my last shave was WAY past its prime.

Just curious how many shaves did you have on it?

I don't shave every day either. Today was shave #23 on the blade in the ER '24. It's no where near "prime" but as long as I continue to get my BBS shave with no irritation I continue to use a blade. Once the blade doesn't give me what I want in my 2 1/3 pass shave I change it.

Brian you have a picture of your Razor to share?

Honestly, Scott, I don't have any idea how many shaves I had on that blade. I quit keeping track. I kind of got sick of some folks telling me I was wasting SO much money pitching blades too early or others telling me I'm ridiculous for pushing a blade too far....I couldn't win and decided I really didn't care much about how many shaves I got out of each blade. Once I have 2 sub-par shaves with the same blade and I don't think there's any other reason for it, I pitch the blade. I also don't have a problem with people keeping track of their own blades either. I'm not knocking it, it's just not something I do anymore.

I bounce around too much with software and hardware to give each blade its best chance,too. So, I just don't keep track.
