I have a mid-May appointment with Chris at Razor Plate. His rave reviews are all over the site. I'm also getting my NEW SC done in gold. I'll be sure and post pics as soon as they're done! I'm pretty excited.

I just used the Homelike Start 1.18, which was the last of the trio I needed to try out. All are very smooth shavers but I think my favorite was the Charcoal Goods, followed by the Start and then Carbon. Something about the weight and the feeling of copper made the CG seem effortless.
The Homelike is the most aggressive razor I own. Blade feel was there but smooth and efficient. Didn't feel like a 1.18 blade gap at all. I honestly think it felt comparable to the Carbon. I really enjoy how comfortable the Carbon handle is but it may be a little redundant since I also have the RazoRock GC 84, which has a very similar head. My last two razors are the Merkur 34G and Karve Brass C, which I both love, but would take any of my other razors over them.
I plan to use these three new razors exclusively for the next month or two. My mind may change after a few more shaves!
Awesome. I have never seen a plated karve before. Usually just the vintage stuff I see plated.
Thanks. Enjoy the shaves! How is the grip on the homelike razor?
I did few minutes ago. I shaved my head and after just this one shave I'm 95% sure that I will sell my other razors that I curently own. I'm gonna make some write up later, after more shaves, where I compare Masamune to other razors that I have experiences with.

Sir, this is the first time I hear about this "Central Texas Soaps" artisan. Is it new? Also, the ingredients list looks very good.
It would be nice if you (or someone else) could produce a write-up for us to read.
Beautiful! You're very fortunate to have them made by your grandfather. A real keepsake.
Unpacked this yesterday:
I thought it was just fine. I did have some concern that it would be a little slippery, but it wasn't an issue. I do prefer handles with a lot of knurling and I had no problems with the Homelike.

Unboxed a new shave mug from Etsy today. This isn't the exact mug, but it's very similar. First use will be tomorrow morning!
Hey Marco I’ve been using their Tobacco & Amber soap for a few months now and I really enjoy it. I actually just posted a review about an hour ago [emoji16]

You got an aftershave too. Very cool. Would love to know what you think of it. I really lime their Tobacco and Amber soap but I find the scent very mild. Assuming the aftershave packs more of a punch scent-wise.

1964 Slim...my first vintage Gillette...arrived today. It’s prepped and ready for tomorrow morning.
The aftershave's scent strength is strong, and lasts a few hours. [emoji1360]

Oh how I envy you who are still getting deliveries. All shipping has stopped in the Philippines, except for essential products.
I don't think the president here is a wet shaver.
