Checking In
Hello Gents,
I haven't been around SMF for some time and wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing, and see what's up in the shave world.
Cheers,
Craig

I've been staying busy, working a couple of jobs as I haven't been able to find one decent one, and, thankfully, still getting good shaves.
I've been going to Chicago at least once a year for work, and I've been stocking up on creams and soaps at the Truefitt store while there. I've been shaving with soaps on workdays (I find they make for a faster shave than creams) including Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet , AOS Sandalwood, and Trumper's Rose. On the weekends its always creams for me, and I'm all over the road with the English classics, Forbes, RazoRock, and a few odd creams that I keep around for super lathering with some not so great soaps (Czech & Speake Oxford & Cambridge, 2010 vintage Penhaligon's English Fern)
I stockpiled Gillette 7 O'Clock 'Russian Black' blades in early 2012, and I'm just about out. They've been solid performers but now I need to decided what to buy next.
Same colognes & aftershaves, just doling them out judiciously due to the price of the scents that I prefer (Knize Ten for one, Royal English Leather for another). The good stuff never is inexpensive though, is it?
