  Today is picture perfect in Maryland. Time for Hiatus. This is more of a summer scent, but it fit perfectly for today. The Le Grelot was my first modern razor purchase and it is still a pleasure to use. Excellent weight and balance in this razor.

  Everybody here is getting fever – but me. I will hold out as is usual two days longer than the others.

  But I found a letter from @walden@sub.wetshaving.social in my mail – ready for BVWSC November edition!

  Have a good day!

  For today’s Wedgeday shave, I brought back the little Spike. This wedge is so small that it’s light enough to not have that feeling of inevitability heavier cleavers have. As a result, it has great tactile feedback without the audible feedback of a hollow ground. It’s a fun break from big hollow grounds like a dirt bike is a fun break from a nice car.
