My first use of MWF soap, second with the handsome G4 with vintage Personna resulted in a pretty underwhelming shave. Not particularly impressed with the Wool Fat and the cutting ability of this blade in this razor was not up there with the best. I set aside both and finished the head shave with the Plus Platinum equipped PAL Adjustable and my own shave gel with much better results.

Can't Remember Which Blade
HBG Sandalwood Aftershave
Penhaligon's Racquets Cologne (Why don't all Penhaligon's have this longevity?)

Had to take a break from the Ikon El Jefe/ RazoRock Hawk testing as the first shave with the El Jefe on Monday (with a misaligned blade) caused some damage that needs to heal. Fortunately my injectors are mild enough to allow me to still present well without furthering the irritation.

My wife and I have the privilege and pleasure of hosting our nephew before we take him to the Missionary Training Center today. He flew in from Wisconsin yesterday and he'll be heading to Argentina at the end of the year. My thoughts this morning were akin to Isaiah 41:10 - "Fear thou not, for I am with thee: be not dismayed for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness."
God speed, Elder G. You'll do great work for the people in Argentina.

Be smooth and shave it up, everyone!
