I find these fixed blade razors so much fun to use. I'd love to find the time and the right candidate to make another one.
Maybe something with a wedgier grind would suit me well I think.
The Mutant combined with the Cade gave me a great 2 pass DFS, a great way to relax on a Sunday evening.

Looking forward to another week of SOTD posts boys, have a good one.

Sunday

A good start to the day. Out to lunch with SWMBO; shared a plate of delectable delights and had a glass of Chardonnay. Then ‘round my son’s to drill some holes in the bottom of a wine barrel he’s going to grow herbs in. Home, and a beer or two (I’m cutting down) and sitting down now to a late afternoon of honing.

The shave was excellent. I LOVE the O Melhor, you need the teeniest amount to get a great lather!
Needed some facial moisturiser today, I think maybe I over did the face lathering the other day.

Anyone heard from Robert lately? Or do I just keep on missing him?

PS the 'Like' button's disappeared again too!!!

Have a good week, people...
