Feels good to do a MicroMatic Mammoth Monday Formation Flight again after a few months of exclusive open blade use.
The Flying Wing is such a nice razor to use. Efficient, decent blade feel but not in-your-face, pretty. The Shire + Valedictorian combination is a winner, but I’m thinking I should have tried using the Roam Two frag. Shire and Roam Two should work together well, I’m just not sure whether Shire can bridge the gap between Valedictorian (cleaner, fresher, less outdoorsy) and Roam Two (very outdoorsy, not fully dirty, but definitely not clean).
A Valedictorian (Bilbo’s living room) -> Shire (the adventure begins!) -> Roam Two (a few days in, torn clothes, muddy boots, but spirits still high) progression would likely work better, but the cooling agent in Shire is too jarring for me to enjoy it. Luckily there is a batch of uncool Shire splash in the works according to inside sources (i.e., straight from the mammoth’s mouth)!

Oh, MMMMFF! I’ve got to do at least one of these this month. Shire+Valedictorian sounds interesting!
It’s alright, you still have 7 chances 😀 (6 if today’s SLS is already locked in)
I’m loving the LotR imagery here. Makes me want to try Valedictorian and Shire when I have the opportunity!
The Road Goes Ever On from The Fellowship of the Ring
Shire really nails the LOTR theme.
