    Great to see the Slim adjustable show up. I'm still learning and quite torn between it and the Fatboy. Both are getting me there and I'm happy they are not too aggressive. I even find them easier to use than the Henson AL13 mild since the weight of the Gillettes keep me from pressing too hard. Have a great day, always glad to see your vids and a the hot dog shot makes me hungry 😋

    Thanks for wearing the undershirt to hide the fact that you have no chest hair. It should be noted that The Magnificent Seven is based on Kurosawa's Seven Samurai, which, if you have not seen, I highly recommend. That 6C in rose gold is purty! I think we should coin the term EOD shavers (every other day). Or TNT shavers (today not tomorrow).

    If I would name razors, the Parker 26C's I'm going to use today would be "Chris". Its bald head is shiny in the light, its graphite handle is off decent clear elegance and its blade reveal under the open comb is signailing viscious readiness to do whatever is necessary to get the the job done for the greater good.
    Damn, I really love your style of making videos.
