    Ok, first, the elephant in the room: yesterday’s Tabassacre was a crime, my disappointment is immeasurable, my day is ruined, and my heart broken. I never thought Kai the otter and his acolytes capable of such mob violence and I’ll never look at his cute wittwe face the same way again.

    It’s Black Wedge Wedgeday and to celebrate, I brought out the 1991 beige Opel Corsa of straight razor design, my beloved little spike. It’s exactly as to-the-point and no-nonsense as the design suggests. It’s fun to use in a non-luxurious way. Like a favourite small kitchen knife, the one that cuts through the tomato skin effortlessly. Additionally, because of the thick blade cross section, it’s much stiffer then hollow ground of similar size and has a more direct feedback. Like a hard 2H pencil vs a B.

    Black Watch is a scent I can’t tire of.
