2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
Another great travel shave. A stainless straight, travel strop, synthetic knot, soap and splash make for a great kit. Feels very civilized :)
I went to the meetup at Maggard Razors yesterday and had the opportunity to meet several sub members. All were as nice in person as they are as redditors. I really enjoyed this opportunity and was honored to chat with some of you in person. I hope to return next year. I also had the chance to meet several of the vendors who regularly frequent the sub. I have way too much stuff already, and told myself not to buy anything, yet I walked away with samples galore, and purchases from Stirling, and Wholly Kaw. I really need to work on self control.

Yay, sounds like the Maggard meet was fun!
I hope to also make it there one day.
Self control is an August thing, were still in April😉

Yes. It was fun. This was my first time going. They guys and the vendors who have been there many times make it feel like more of a reunion.
Going to Adrian, MI from Switzerland would be quite the trip. Adrian isn’t in the middle of nowhere, but you can see nowhere from there :)

I drove past it on I90 a couple times, not understanding its significance.
I only met with three fellow internet shavers IRL, but it also felt a bit like a reunion. We do know each other already

I was there primarily at the urging of VisceralWatch. We spent quite a while talking, and I’m glad he convinced me to go.
