Nice mail call! The bowl looks fantastic as does the razor. I hear you about using only one new thing at a time, but it is very hard when the mail call is so wonderful.

But the Feather, even with the lightest of touches, wanted to dig in around the moustache area. The residual slickness of the Aloe Vera allowed some buffing around the mouth, but the CF just couldn't take it, as the residual was nowhere near what the Aloe Vera provided.
I find it very challenging to do ATG in this area with any of my razors because of the irritation it causes- I usually just let it go at the DFS stage in these areas but once in a while I get lucky and it works out BBS with a little coaxing. Great writeup keep up the good work. I have never tried a TOBS cream maybe I'll start with this one!
Catching up on your journal - a belated WELCOME! Wow, you really jumped in the deep end head first - love it!
Always good to see a fellow army vet around these parts!
Always good to see the positive after a frustrating shave. That razor makes me want to get working on my W&B near wedge. It's a 5/8 but similar to yours in shape. It's got some nice etching on the face, but the pitting is so prevalent that I'm going to end up removing it.
