I could do that too by doing a very early morning shave and an evening shave, but my pattern of morning shaves are ingrained. I don't generally think about shaving in the evening, and this would be over shaving for me. I might see if I can figure out a way in November, though. It would be fun to mess with worbx's statistics.
The microscope is a luxury. I've done 15 years of knife sharpening with a loupe that became unused after I developed a sense of what's happening at the edge by feeling it, looking at its reflection, and by testing.
I'll be doing a ~~Sample~~ Straightember; primarily using my new Koraat, my new (to me) Tanifuji, and an Iwaski that hasn't made its way across the pond yet. I'm looking forward to using and commenting about these razors!
Yay, we will be legion 😆
Busy September, I see! (and the good kind of busy!) I'm looking forward to your posts
Yes, a fun month ahead. Since it will also be my Settantesimo September I think I will extend September to 35 days (sorry Pope Gregory) and complete 70 uses of SV 70th Anniversary.
