It was surprisingly hard to find someone else to match today (at the last minute). I scanned through and u/sirkravsalot was the only one who had used something I have in my den. Obviously a lot of people had planned ahead for today, and it shows! Nice work!

I’d like to thank u/gcgallant (@gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social). From being a voice of reason on the Fediverse version of r/wetshaving, to being involved in the Straight Razor Revolution with his video shaves, tutorials, free advice, being the money-man for the Moarteen group buy, and on and on and on… He’s a slow and steady positive influence on the shaving community.
The razor that I used today was a gift from him (well, he loaned it to me, but I might steal it!). I’ve had various levels with success with this particular razor, and today’s shave was my favorite with it so far! I’ve recently increased my stropping to 75+, and I do believe it’s helping quite a bit. The razor felt so nimble and nice today. No tugging, and it felt almost as “safe” as my Joseph Rogers & Sons near-wedge.
This was my 33rd straight razor shave which is surprising, because I thought I was still under 30. I must have miscounted last time.
