What's your favorite TV show?
Either current or no longer on.

Do you have a favorite or go to razor?
What is it and why do you prefer it?
Shave yourself.

Oh, boy. What is my favorite show. There's so many to choose from. I tend to have Netflix running as background noise in the evening, so I do catch a lot of shows. Since I can't decide on one, I'll give you a few. Archer: fan of Adam Reed's since Sealab and Frisky Dingo. House of Cards: Kevin Spacey's performance and his breaking the fourth wall is amazing. West Wing: Great characters all the way through the series.

My favorite razor is the Merkur Futur on a #2 setting. It is my favorite razor because it is consistent. That is the razor and setting that I use to test a new blade. I know how the razor behaves so any variation is from the blade. My prep is fairly consistent as well. Also, I love a heavy razor. I have a Maggard's MR8 handle with a iKon Shavecraft Slant head.

aside from wet shaving, what are some of your hobbies?

what's your profession, if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks giving me the opportunity talk about my business/obsession!

I am a geek at heart, so LEGO's are on the list. My boys are 9 and 11 and we like to build together. I am a husky chap, but that doesn't stop me from doing mud runs and 10mi walks. We started playing foot golf this year. It's like golf, played on a golf course, and the hole is the width of two soccer balls. Also, we frisbee golf. Basically, any kind of golf that doesn't involve clubs and a small ball. My real golf game is a joke.

I am a Senior Web Developer by day. I code primarily in PHP/Laravel, which is what the blade site is created with.

I placed my first order with you a couple weeks ago for a few SE blades.

You are welcome! Yeah, it's quite an investment for the full packs of the SE blades. I'm a fan of the Feather Professional blades in my Feather AC fixed handle and my Alumigoose.

HTTPS is on the way. Tongue

I am starting to work on a new version of the site in Laravel 5.3 and it will implemented when it goes live whenever it gets done.

Nice to see existing projects latch onto Laravel, it's a nice framework and does a lot of heavy lifting for you.

Hi, Jason! I very much appreciate the service you offer and have used it on several occasions. Thank you!

I'm wondering what your favorite or "go to" blades are? DE, SE, etc.
