Thanks Fuzzy, she has left a big hole in our lives, but also lovely memories. Do you have other pets? Or plan on getting another? We don't have any other pets, but we have had 2 dogs and 5 cats in the past. All of them heartbreakers. No plans for any more yet, but you never know. Poor kitty. Sorry to hear about that. Always a hard decision. God bless. Thanks, I really appreciate that. Sorry for your loss... Always difficult to go through that decision both as a Veterinary and as a pet owner... We had to make the same decision last year with one of our cats with gastrointestinal lymphoma. Thank you, and yes our Vet performed very sympathetically. |

04.01.2018  Fantastic shave today. It was the first use of this Wholly Kaw Vetivertal soap and it provided a slick surface to the Heljestrand do its business as ever... perfectly. The scent of Vetiver was a great surprise as it is a vetiver tamed with some citric notes that add some freshness which I appreciated. Have a fantastic day my friends!  Dang that is one good looking set up. That razor is stunning |

Thur 4th Jan. Omega 11126 boar Speick Active soap Mongoose B3 satin Kai Captain mild pink [ 4 ] Alum Rub/Rinse off Pitralon Original A/S Lotion An really enjoying the AC/SE which really seem to suit my beard growth. It is good how though not classed as aggressive, they all have nice blade feel and from the off you get indication of whisker elimination , and you are able to assess the progress of a Shave. I used a Kai blade which provided a smooth and very comfortable Shave,though not as close a finish as with other blades. However, very good for dealing with stubborn areas of growth without causing irritation.  |

Dang that is one good looking set up. That razor is stunning It is a beautiful and simple design. The Swedes were spot on with this one. And the fact that we can use a GEM modern blade is a plus. At the moment this is the razor that could be "The Razor" if I chose to own only one. |

Great shave last night 1/4/18 The Lady Eversharp with a PROLINE on 2nd shave! BBS - i guess u could call it a mild razor? but any pressure on the razor with this blade will cause you to lose a layer of skin,,,,,,,,,,,, Thanks - jamie  |

Ace and Clamorgan just arrived from JR. Ace smells very similar to Soap Commander Courage. Which is not a bad thing at all, great scent here. Clamorgan is pretty dang complex, citrusy, herby. Interesting for sure, don't know how I feel about it. The @squadronsoap performed well with plenty of slickness. Only con I can think of after one use is post shave feel isn't as good as declaration/L&L or Story Book, but it was not bad at all.  |

Pure-badger brush
The indescribable Williams Mug Shaving Soap
Kampfe Brothers Star No. 1
Gem Blue Star carbon-steel
Lilac Vegetal
Another fantastic lather-catcher shave.
I found a 2-ounce sample of that Lavender Vegemite stuff. My skin feels great, and the scent is pure and natural, but I don't know that I care to smell like a flower blossom.
