Ron,

By corker, do you mean you corked an ASRCO blade? If so, does it make a difference? I have corked a Merkur Blade and a Personna blade and seemed to have good results. No nicks. I don't know if corking even on these mild blades is real, or just something in my head.

No worries. After taking out my Honeybee soaps out of their package, I often forget what scents they are. I've had to go back to my PayPal payment a few times to remember.
