I got these today. I looked at the blades under a microscope for kicks. "Thursday" appeared to have a great edge on it. I did 50 laps and gave it a go. It sure as hell wasn't dull.

Mint everything!
My trusty C&E brush - do you see the B&B Essential in the picture? Neither do I.
A nice New.

First time I used moisturizer, I put some on my face in the shower and it was the last part I washed and rinsed. Shaving did seem to go a little easier.

Anyway a very decent one pass shave. I might try getting up a bit earlier - yeah, right!

I Haven't posted in SOTD for a long time, and just wanted to let you guys know I'll be posting here more frequently ....

And all that lovely razor porn I see here is the reason I've stayed away, it always seems I'm missing something I must have... Starting with a new camera..
But heres my submission from the old faithful brick of a Canon s330.. (soon to be upgraded)
