    Thanks for confirming what I thought I was figuring out. It gives loud feedback at a steep angle, but doesn't shave anything. At the most shallow angle it works just fine, but very quiet feedback.

    Brought out the Red Tip today, which is becoming my favorite DE. And I decided to try out one of these NOS Gillette Spoiler blades. The result was fantastic! What a smooth and sharp blade. Probably the closest shave I have had to date! Was even able go atg on the midline of my neck and the Adams apple which I have never been able to do. Results were a BBS with absolutely no irritation. Good day everyone!

    My daily shaves for the next number of days are going to be boring from a SOTD photo perspective. I am going to use this cream until the container is empty. There is about 1/4 of the container remaining to be used. Fortunately this is an amazing product. I can honestly say I have never had a bad shave with this cream and there is no scent, so that is a bonus. I decided it is time to try to reduce my soap/cream herd. Using one soap at a time until it is finished may be boring from a photo perspective (I only use one razor). The upside is I should gradually reclaim more space in my sock drawer (where I store my soaps). I may keep my Sundays open for a wildcard shave. :)

    Razor: Schick Inj. J1(2)
    Brush: VDH Badger
    Cream: Proraso White
    Pre Shave Oil: Homemade
    A/S: Gillette As for men.
    Bowl: Pick up at local antique shop

    No BBS, she keeps eluding me of late. I came close, but not quite there. A 2 pass ATG/WTG, with some clean up. Lady J really knows her job, so smooth and clean, no irritation. I wiggled a little on a flat area on my cheek( tremor ), a small weeper, human error. Other than, that i came out with a very good DFS. I`m satisfied, got rid of that mustashio, thank God and Lady J. I feel a little more "normal" now. Believe me, i don`t have anything against those who enjoy facial hair. To each his own. I admire some that I`ve seen. Best wishes to all.

    WEDNESDAY
    Chilly morning compelled me to break out the mini Becker scuttle for a hot-water shave. Smooth, comfy 3-pass shave from a vintage C-Mon 'Blackie' and MdC 'Fougére' lather, and finished with Musgo Real No.3 'Spiced Citrus.'
    Have a Happy Hump Day, all!
