It is nice to see someone else use a kamisori Feather AC razor.Feather Artist Club with Feather Professional blade (2 passes)
Still in?
Hey guys
In an effort to take care of my shaving brush one of our esteemed members recommended a comb to help with removing mats. Does purchasing a comb disqualify me from the February GRUME?
@Roedeer is asking the right question, and only @awk_m4 knows the answer. If you say you're still in, you're still in.Does it come within the spirit (if maybe not the letter) of Rule 1c (my highlight in red)?
Having read about combing brushes being a good thing , you found you didn't have a comb lying around...
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that this is our first "out" of the month (the above notwithstanding). Not too shabby, and for a worthy prize.On the 6th day of February, I am out!
I sold my Karve Christopher Bradley Brass razor today, and found a Muhle Rocca Stainless for sale on Reddit for $10 more than I sold the Karve for.
Farewell my brothers! I'll be seeing you.
I get burning after a couple of days when there is no or low lanolin content. Perhaps?STILL IN GRUME, GRUYERE, 365 Shaves, Fruity February & OBIF
Today is also Muhle Monday.
UPDATE for SWS:
The Ariana & Evans L' Orange Verte soap seems to be causing some burning and stinging issues. This is the 2nd soap in my collection that doesn't suit my skin. I am switching to the Proraso Azur Lime for the remainder of the week.

Feather AC Pro (6)
Muhle XL STF
Proraso Azur Lime
It is interesting that the tube of Proraso shows a picture of a straight razor and uses the words "single blade". What I say is this is a slick and fragrant lather and my face doesn't have any sensitivity issues. DFS+ today.
Please take care of yourself and each other.
To be continued….and there is an exception to buy one nonessential item per year.
Sorry, I see that’s a bit misleading. Next conversation, another drama. Then it will continue.To be continued….
Now you have a bunch of guys wanting "to know the rest of the story"!
I am curious if your strategy is leading to your yearly exception?
I am still looking forward to Season 1, Episode 2 (Another Drama)...and then Episode 3.Sorry, I see that’s a bit misleading. Next conversation, another drama. Then it will continue.
Yearly exception, no strategies there. (Yet) I put that in because right now that is my main temptation. I KNOW I don’t need it and shouldn’t buy it. But…
Can’t wait to get back under a straight blade tomorrow
Blade: ??? Got this in a sample pack from Razor Blade Club. Picture below. No markings on blade or paper wrapper.
I was thinking it may be a Kai. I'll have to check it against a couple other blades in a bit.Kai comes in that stealth mode. Is it fractionally wider than an average DE blade?
