March 2022 Gentlemanly Restraint Until Month End (GRUME)

3.30.22 I've tried platinum lux in 5+ razors . This is the only one where it's actually even half worth the time. I probably won't use them anymore

Still In !
Final Shave of the Month - #28


A nice Double-Pass this morning before the onset of AM meetings.
Another smooth DFS within the confines of a 15min Meditation
This is the furthest I have ever taken a blade thanks to GRUME, FFFMM, and Excalibur.

Honestly it's not done yet and I will be carrying this one forward into SOTMC and April GRUME

Day 31, 100% complete.

Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat
Brush: Yaqi 24mm synthetic cashmere
Razor: GC.84 SB, Al Handle, Wizamet SI #3

Wizamets are expensive compared to Astra SPs, but you can't argue with the shave. Nice easy near-BBS.
