    [​IMG] Two Pass Shaving Routine...:cool:

    Hot Water prep & massage with Argan Oil
    Crown & Sword Solingen 7/8th
    Kent BK2 Pure Badger
    Blue Brand Goats Milk Tallow Soap
    Humphreys Witch Hazel

    I just Honed this SR Tonight on a Lapping Film Progression System..The Seller I got it from was a Surgeon by Trade & he had Put too Fine an Edge on it & it Collapsed I reckon after the 2nd Shave with it..I was Only intending to have a Test Shave with it but Hey..I wasn't going to Cut Around with only Half my Face Shaved..:happy097:

    The Edge on this SR is as Keen & Smooth as any Razor I have that's been Honed by a Professional..I have been Honing SE Hollow Ground Blades for sometime & this is My 2nd SR that I have Honed..I am Getting the Feeling of Working with a Longer Blade & of Course a Bit of Good Luck..:)

    Fantastic Shave..I am Dolphin Smooth & Refreshed..:angelic007:

    They are. A bit ungainly because of their weight distribution, but if one can't get a close shave with a FatBoy, then there's no hope. :)

    Dove Men Face Wash
    TOBS Grapefruit
    Jayaruh #61
    Schick M Adjustable
    Schick Injector Twin
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    T.N. Dickinson's WH
    Mennen Skin Bracer

    The TOBS Grapefruit Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #61 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick M Adjustable razor with a Schick Stainless Twin Injector blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with T.N. Dickinson's WH and then Mennen Skin Bracer After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Doug, I like how the plants appear to show INSIDE the Booster... better be sure you're applying A.S. lotion on and not plants!!!!

    SOTN: Evening shave using this vintage CMON 'Blackie' 5/8. All CMONs deliver a smooth, easy shave—and this Blackie is no exception. Martin de Candre 'regular' lather and 'Snake Bite' finish.
    Have a great Tuesday, all!
