Sunday 5/3

• Penchetta Penworks Redwood Burl Silvertip
• Ingram Menthol S/C
• 7/8 W&B "Celebrated Hollowground" Barber's Notch
• Thayer's A/F Original
• Spanish Floid Vigoroso

Result: DFS today. A noticeable difference between the older W&B "Hollowground" and the newer hollow ground razors. Maybe it would be considered a 1/2 hollow, now? Love the Ingram's, and the Floid Vigoroso is a nice compliment to it....both nice and mentholated.

• Ever Ready 100T Boar
• De Vergulde Hand S/S
• 6/8 Autocraft Roadrunner
• Thayer's A/F Original
• English Leather A/S

Result: Decided to try ATG today....dumba$$! Didn't like the English Leather A/S...left my face sticky afterward. Rinsed it off and used the W&S since that's what I had in my work bag...
