@Quink - That is a nice looking brush, JC. Catie's Bubbles has a great lineup of soaps IMHO.
@JBO667 - (Thursday) I'm taking the bait, Jerad. I'm betting there's more than Williams in that Old Spice mug. (Friday) Many times the best shaves on a blade are the later ones.

@Doug57 - Excellent POV photo, Doug. I like that bowl.
@TheVez2 - Captain Jack Sparrow is protecting your shave or is he going to steal it? Love your backing bottles, KJ.

@Quink - That is a quite handsome Gold Tech, JC, from the 1940s I believe.

@Quink - Fine shaving ensemble, JC. It's great the Tech and Nacet work so well.


Hope everyone's Saturday evening is going well. Mine's almost over so I'll say bonsoir and see you tomorrow.

Thanks Ron! I really like the Tech. Paired with the Nacet... its awesome. I have to give the credit to [MENTION=76298]Cash_Stronomer[/MENTION] Thats one of his signature combos... and hes the one that got me sold on the Nacets. Thanks for that!!

How can you tell the age of the early Techs?? Theres no serial number or something, is there?

Earthquake, again​

Yet another quake and this one has been really strong, the strongest so far. Not much to say about today's shave because all of my thoughts are for those who are suffering from the tremendous quakes we are having since August. Houses, monuments, churches, mountains collapsing down, people walking hopeless in the middle of the remains just waiting for all this to come to an end. And who knows when it will end. I consider myself very lucky because, although Perugia - the city where I live - is just few tens of miles away from the main area of quakes, we just listen to the rattling of doors, windows and walls shaken by the quake, objects and furniture moving around and nothing else. Only a little of fear and you know there is nothing you can do but waiting for it to end while thinking there are people not so far from here who are not as lucky as I am. And I cannot even imagine how scared they are and the fear they feel day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute.​

@Rxdude - How did you like the Seville?

Thanks for the kind words! The Seville has a nice scent to it. Like a citrusy, zesty barbershop type scent. Not overpowering, not understated. Scent off sample was true to the lathering. Performance was great. Almost ordered it a few weeks ago, I would see myself ordering it in the future.
