I have just been told by FedEx Trade Networks (FTN) that the package has cleared all federal agencies and has been sent to customs. Customs will come in 8:00pm and will issue the release about midnight andmy brush should be to me by 10:30am tomorrow.

When closed all the way my Progress registers a 2 I then place it on 5. I keep it in that setting for all of my passes.

I average about 7 days out of a Merkur blade.

Dan,

You might also try some Proraso or Omega shaving soap. They are both exactly the same except QED charges $6.50 for the Proraso and $5.00 for the Omega. Both come in a 5oz. bowl.

Both are very soothing because they have Eucalyptus & Menthol and they give a very close shave.

Larry that is GREAT news! :shock:

FedEx says that mine should clear customs after midnight and will get on the next FedEx flight. They say it will be stickered for Saturday delivery. They can't promise Saturday delivery but they say it looks promising since I live in Dallas.

Chris,

Called FedEx just know, they said it was waiting to clear customs and that they had all the paperwork they needed. She said that if it is released today she would request that it be stickered for Saturday delivery but no guaranty.
