Good morning everyone! Had another absolutely stellar shave with the Schick B1 last night. I absolutely love this razor, it has a good level of aggression but is still smooth. Typical awesome, close, long lasting injector type shaves But the weight of the handle really puts it over the top. This razor performs so well for me that is has earned a staring position on The Dream Team . Have a great day my Friends!

 

I got the Christmas Eve in a sample and I'm a fan too. Despite the name, the actual elements work quite well for spring in my opinion.

 

Flare before landing is a good way of looking at it. My scar is from forgetting to flare
Thanks for a great term!

Chiseled Face Ghost Town Barber today. 20 seconds to load the Ever-Ready/TGN Silvertip. Easy, thick, slick, lather. I loaded a new Personna Med Prep in the Maggard V2 OC. Excellent smooth, close shave. I finished with Chiseled Face Ghost Town Barber aftershave.

Just love the Krona. With a Feather an easy BBS on the beard. Not my favorite for my head, as to achieve BBS as it takes quite a bit of buffing but it does get there without irritation. For me it's a much superior shave than I get with its Gillette contemporaries.

A very fine shave once again.

A bit of irritation and the aftershave stung quite a bit.
So after six shaves the Personna blade has got to go.

Next up another Polsilver Super Iridium blade to see how many shaves I'll get out of that.
I suspect quite a bit more then six.

Thursday morning's shave:

Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Astra day 4
Matas S/S
Lubriderm Unscented Moisturizer
Booster Polar Ice A/S Splash
YSL Pour Homme EdT

No menthol for this shave - by the way, this Matas soap is very nice. It lathers easily, it has a nice, mild scent, and it leaves the skin feeling very clean. Don't be fooled by the name Polar Ice because it's a great aftershave, but it has NO cooling sensation!

 

What a forgetful fool I am. This Matas soap is from Denmark. I believe it's the only commercial shaving soap from there. I believe there are some artisans in Denmark, but I have no clue who or where they are.

 

Thank you very much, guys!
Hope everyone had a good shave and a good day!

 

Razor: Ever-Ready SE 1914
Blade: GEM Personna (4)
Brush: Shavemac ATG LE The Nisky Silvertip Fan
Soap: Route 66 Bourbon Jungle
Aftershave: Route 66 Bourbon Jungle Balm

 

Cool pic.

 

Good shaver, but it's hard to load and unload for me.

 

Thursday's March SE Maddness

Dove Men Face Wash
TABAC
Jayaruh #150
Micromatic Clog-Pruf
CVS SE
CWR, Asma Alum Block
Thayer's Lemon WH
Speick AS

The TABAC Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #150 synthetic brush. I did two passes the Gem Micromatic Clog-Pruf razor and a CVS SE blade, I ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Speick AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Thanks Jim!
