Thanks for this! Im in coastal NC. It's amazing how well you can sharpen a kitchen knife or pocket knife, and then SR's send everything you've ever learned directly out of the window. I assume that we have B&B members who offer honing services?

Send a message to member Doc226 who is just up the road from you in R. I. He does honing for members here. With the edge you’ll get back from him,you’ll definitely know what shave ready is.

^ I agree, @Doc226 has provided me with some exceptional edges.

I can put some great, sharp yet mellow edges on your razors using my natural stones (Coti's, etc).

@Frank Shaves I have resorted to lathering one side of my face at a time the last week or so.

I’ll give “likes” to your photos, not “the Veg.” I used to chuckle about how people described the odor. Then I tried it. Oh! How could you?

Not everyone is chosen.

Not everyone is chosen.

If only it really smelled like lilacs. I have no idea how this stuff has remained in production so long.

Scandalously self-indulgent. Back to the arms of Rasoir Sabre France again today. Sing to me...

RSF Campiono 6/8 does it all. This blank is cast to Ertan Süer's specification using his own dies by a French forge. He is a one-man fusion of the best French and German traditions and truly an artist in his own right.

Did you get the idea that I love and respect this razor?

Today it was the Wacker Chevalier.

Interesting handle on that brush.

 

[Meinrad]

Well not the most handy one. But at least a bit different;-)

Union Spike, and day 4 of 7 using the Veg. Just lovin' the MdC!

It is a strange scent - unlike anything else that I have smelled. I am curious if my reaction to the scent changes after 7 days. Just another mad shaving experiment!

Very nice shave finished with some Harris Pink.

 

[Darth Scandalous]

Koraat, Pharaoh's Dreamsicle, and I finished with Clubman so as not to offend @Dominic 's sensibilities

Honestly though, I probably use the Veg 4 or 5 days a week.

Hi gents,

 

[Darren J 67]

Was a pif so thought I best give it a go.
Makes you realise how forgiving a straight really is. No cuts but a couple of weepers .
