The child said, "Dad, when you don't shave, you look like a cactus, but when you do, you're a human being ." I thought it was an interesting SOTD idea and a great opportunity to do some crafts with the child.
I have a great shave and became a human being again.
The WECK continues to amaze me. One pass is enough for a DFS.

First try of Martin De Candre soap. Just got three samples from Pasture Pharmacy. Fougere, Rose, and Agrumes. The Rose May be too scented for me. The Fougere is strong but not overly so. The Agrumes is very nice and clean, it will be next up. The lather whipped up to be amazingly thick and rich. Awesome three pass sha

Proraso pre-shave, Omega EVO, Tatra Platinum, Timeless Ti w .95, MDC Fougere soap, Omega alum, Thayers Toner, HAGs Faceless.

I've lived in two houses that were struck by lightning on a fairly regular basis. My grandmother's house had a metal kitchen sink. Every time the lightning would hit close you could hear it pop and crack in the sink. No one went near any plumbing during a storm. Avoiding showers cost nothing and being in the way of a lightning strike can cost you everything. I hope that explains things.
Yes^
I couldn’t have been more than three or four years old. My parents (sorry guys 🙄) told me to stay away from sinks, bathtubs and toilets during a thunderstorm so’s not to be electrocuted. Scared the piss out of me! 😱

Try leaving the rose soap open to the air for a week or two. Works a charm!

Big thanks to @SpeedyPC for inspiring me to use the goat razor today! The lightest possible grip with what I like to call negative pressure, and the razor gave a spectacular bbs result. It required utmost attention to every move. But I must say it shaved great!
Two passes, no post shave feedback at all except ahhhh… 9.995 bbs

That's a another great one, from you!

That Weck razor against the Reuzel's label with a guillotine gives me the creeps. I wouldn't be able to shave with one. Too scary! I would live the rest of my life as a cactus.

You've made a great point about the label and the razor—it's a pure coincidence, but I'm not sure :) I was genuinely scared to shave with it the first time, but my curiosity about how it works won out. I've read a lot about similar razors and realized that the Weck is a very good and reliable razor for beginners. The main thing is to be careful and take your time. Plus, this razor is vintage and has a history—I love razors like this! Thanks for the high rating!
