SOTD "FREE WEEK" November 19th - November 25th, 2018

[ronweston]

I did notify Ron by PM about starting a new thread.
Haven't heard back from him.
Since I don't have any way of closing last week's thread, I just added a post to it about this new thread.
Hope I haven't messed things up, guys!

Patti

Thanks, Patty. I was down with a head cold over the weekend and posting the thread slipped right by me. I think only moderators can close threads now.

As I mentioned before, Patti, I do like your arsenal of razors. Nice rabbit BTW.

Thanks, Ron. Yes, the "arsenal" is slowly approaching epic proportions. Really gotta think about weeding.
Glad to hear you are not down with anything worse than a bad cold. Feel better soon!

Thanks, Patti. I've got a doctor's appointment at 2 so maybe I'll get some better meds.

I really need to weed my collection also. At last count I had 66 modern razors and 118 vintage. And I have a Vector due any day.

The more razors, the merrier!
And you definitely need a Vector.

Thanks for the kind words Ron and hope you are better sooner than later. BTW - have you had an opportunity to use the Schick D yet?

Its been almost 10 months since I have posted a SOTD picture, I felt like I was getting too wrapped up in picking products that would be aesthetically pleasing and really lost focus on just enjoying the shave. I have really been able to dial in my routine but I have really missed posting in this forum so I figured I would try to start documenting some of my shaves again, it feels good to be posting again.
