Today's shave
Hot water wash with a washcloth
Rubberset 400/ whipped dog high mountain white
TSD iced Florida Water type
Merkur Progress (3.5)
Rapira (2)
Iced/ Atomized Florida Water
Seemed not right to take the blade from the progress (after the homerun shave yesterday). So I used it again. Same great results. Tsd soap is crowning, feels like i just got it (but I've used it allot of late).
Hope y'all did as well, or better.

 

If you like Musk you'd like the Jeris. The scent lasts for many hours too. But you're right, it's a big bottle. That will last a long time.

 

Yeah, I`ve been using Mennen afta for years, I like it and I think I smell alright, thanks for the info. God Bless, Bill

 

They quit making the Gillette "Twinjector", I have several dispensers, 8 blades per and I have several pivoting razors, so I should have what I need
I have a glut of razor, DE, Carts and Injectors. I can`t get too much information, though, thank you, God Bless, Bill.

 

Tonight's shave was with a Rescue Razor. I had a stunning 2 pass shave, that left me BBS, without touch-ups. I also used a "Mustache Razor" that I hadn't used in a while. Both performed without issues.

Razors:
Landers Frary & Clark #345. New Britain Conn. USA.
Pfeilring Solingen. Tiefgekuhlt Inox. Mustache Razor.
Brush- Stirling Boar
Soap- Arko/Avon Spicy scented
Aftershave- Avon Spicy. Avon "Little Brown Jug" Decanter.

Arko Adjustable April!!

April 25
Razor - Schick Type M Adjustable Injector
Blade - (4)
Soap - Arko
Brush - Semogue 620
Post - Alum

I made the decision to stay with the adjustable razors through the end of the month. Six shaves left, can't quit now. Besides, my Schick M has a blade in it with 3 shaves on it and I know it's good for more than that. So, The Semogue Boar and Arko, and the Injector set wide open with a Schick blade is the call.

The Semogue 620 is a smaller brush and I sometimes end up loading it a little light. That wasn't the case today. Nice load, great lather and two passes gave me a great DFS. I decided to go for the baby and ended up with a small cut on my right jawline. Oops. Still, very near BBS finish and all is good. The injector definitely provides a fine smooth shave and is fun to use. Now if only the handle wasn't so clunky looking.

Day off tomorrow and I play to spend some time with my gear getting ready for MAYhem!! Less than a week to go! Keep those great shaves coming for this month. We're a bit behind the pace for last year but we have five days to blow it out of the water!

Shaved head and face today. Soap Le Père Lucien cyprès boisé, manchurian badger brush the Druid, vintage straight razor J. A. Henkels Solingen Zwillingswerk Friodur 6/8, after shave Myrsol agua balsamica. I love the citrus and "elegant" aroma of this soap, accompanied by this good badger and the hand of Henkels and Myrsol achieved a good shave with hair and beard for 5 days, is when you notice the superiority of the straight razor.

Good morning friends. A fine three pass shave today with the Muhle R41 fitted with a Gillette 7'o'clock blade. Excellent lather from the Proraso SC. I am smooth and refreshed. Enjoy your day friends. ☺️

 

I’ve been using my DEs all week, so today I took out my Gillette Rocket HD. I love this TTO as these British razors were quality builds compared to their USA counterparts.

It was a smooth and close shave this morning.
