Very good advice my man! Yep.....March 24......Our dear friend.....The Ever Ready Little Lather Catcher will turn 102 years old......We need to celebrate......after all....this is one razor that loves to party.....The ER 1914 is the original "Wild Child" ...those that have one know what I mean.....Those that don't, need to score one so you can join in on the Centennial +2 celebration.... I'm open for ideas.....Let's hear em.....How do you cats think we should celebrate the 1914's 102nd ?
Can't wait to hear your shave report of the H Bird! Loved the Monty Python reference. "What are you going to do? Bleed on me?"
I find the 1914 to be very aggressive, so, I just break it out on the anniversary of its patent. It is very tricky changing the blade. I hope to see more guys shaving with it on the 24th.
First shave with the PAL Injector and liking it. SOTD Route 66 Retro Spice Vie-Long horsehair brush PAL Adjustable Chick blade (1) Alum Thayers Witch Hazel Old Spice AS Have fun!
March 9 Schick Repeater B2 / Schick (9) TOBS Shave Shop Rubberset Silvertip vintage reknot Gentlemen's Pride ASB Aubrey Northwoods AS A great shave today with the B2. The TOBS lathered well and the razor left me Dolphin smooth.
Second day with the PAL on the medium setting an I got a very nice shave. It did take more passes than I am used to to get a BBS. I'm going to dial up the aggressiveness tomorrow to see if I can cut the number of passes. This is a fun razor. SOTD Route 66 Retro Spice Doug Korn brush PAL Adjustable Chick blade (2) Alum Thayers Witch Hazel St John's Bay Rum Have fun!
March 10 Bunny ver.3 mild comb / Schick (1) Williams modern Comet Superfine Badger Every Man Jack mint face lotion Aqua Velva Original Sport My first shave with the Bunny was very good. The razor lived up to the hype. It is a very efficient razor. I used the Mild comb and ended up Dolphin smooth. I look forward to the next while evaluating this razor.
PAL Adjustable, NOS Schick Super Chromium blade (5) and a lot of Tabac. My third day revisiting the PAL Adjustable, which combined with Tabac resulted in an exquisite shave. --Bob
It's a British Ever-Ready and a G-5 Schick. It's been on my watch list since it was listed. I have some other things working, so it's back burner. Let us know what you decide.
March 10, 2016 The month of March with my two Schick E razors. Skipped my shave yesterday because my shave with the E2 the day before was that good. First time I’ve skipped a weekday shave! So onto the Canadian Schick E Hot Shower Razor: Schick E (Canada) Blade: Schick (China) (1) Soap: Route 66 Bourbon Jungle (Thanks @Douglas Carey ) Brush: Rubberset 400-4 TSD Witch Hazel Myrsol Plastic Shave Two-pass shave - XTG, ATG Almost the same routine as the E2 - just pay attention to angle, pressure, and each stroke and this razor delivers. feedback seemed slightly louder than the E2 as well as a bit less of a bite on my chin. Nine hours later and Im still sooooo smooth. I’m liking these E types. Cheers! RT
Shave #7 on the E-4 razor/chick combo. Three passes and my skin is as smooth as dad's naugahide chair. I now am thinking I can get a dozen shaves from this system! Tabac all around for this evening's shave
