Notes to today’s shave: |
I really enjoy your "non shaving days"
Yes, Brandon @FoolishMortal honours GRUYERE exceptions!!Still in!!
Yesterday I learned that my one exception for the GRUYERE has shipped. I was on the waiting list for a Wolfman WR2 razor head and it should arrive here next week.
Hopefully I understand the rules for the monthly restraint, but since I'm in the GRUYERE, I believe the arrival of the new razor allows me to stay in the monthly restraint. Am I correct on that?
Enjoy your weekend my friends!

5. You are encouraged to engage in trades (especially with each other),
That's the solution. Trades are allowed in GRUYERE as well. Thanks for the suggestion!Rule 5!

Accepting a kind, unprovoked offer is not the same as entering a PIF.Entering into PIFs would be a violation of GRUYERE rules...
@Balin is correct; your GRUYERE exception will not put you out of GRUME. I'm not a monster!Still in!!

I must say, I really like that Simpson's Special knot - I have it in both Pure and Best.Still in - DFS+
Rocket HD500, Personna Platinum (2), Wickham Classic 24, Simpsons Special Pure, Tuncer No. 2 splash
First time around I got some brush burn but now I know how to handle it. Is it still available in both grades? I thought it was superseded by the Berkeley 46 Pure?I must say, I really like that Simpson's Special knot - I have it in both Pure and Best.
Perfect size for travel...
