Injector & SE Party !!!

Thank you. I think I got the Pacific Rush at Dollar General, but it may have been on of the other dollar shops.

 

Unbeatable combination.

Oh yes. The feathers are my favorite modern injector blades. Well worth the extra few minutes to cut to size.

That is an early E2 that opens correct?

That's one hell of a kung fu grip you got there, Jmud! Tom just asked a question he wasn't gonna take it from ya.....

 

LOL!!! Exactly what I was thinking when I saw it... Got a death grip on it.

 

I may have to stock up on these E2s just in case.

I was kidding buddy!

 

Yeah! Remind me never to ask him about his razors!

 

Haha. I liked the one word answer. Kind of like Arnold in a Terminator movie

We sure are a tough crowd here.

I have to try those blades some day. Do they last longer than the DE versions? I only got about 3 good shaves from them but they were great shaves.

 

I get 5 to 6 great shaves pretty much the same as the Chicks. Only sharper and just as smooth.

Monday Shave

Brush- AOS Fine Badger
Razor- GEM MMOC/Ever-Ready 1924
Blade- GEM
Soap- Stirling Margaritas in the Arctic
Post Care- Crystal Alum
Thayers Witch Hazel
Bombed Old Spice Lime

I'm going to call this a "WTH" shave. I'm not too sure what went wrong today. I got more weepers today than the last couple months combined, and on both sides. I swapped the blade from the 1912 into the Ever-Ready so they had the same number of shaves. I used the Ever-Ready in my right side and the GEM on the left. Both were very smooth, lots of audible feedback. I had no tugging at all yet major irritation on the GEM side and weepers on both. I've used this Stirling soap many times before and never had this issue. I wasn't rushed, I'm at a loss what went wrong. I'm not even counting this towards my razor trial as neither side was any good today. I will say that I'm dolphin smooth but nonetheless it's not a good finish. The Old Spice burned like crazy but at least I smell good. Have a great day folks!

 

Beautiful hoe Bob!

It may or my not be my best hoe, but it is probably the prettiest.

Le Coq Rasoir
Le Coq wedge blade
Fine Angel Hair synthetic brush
Chiseled Face Groomatorium Summer Storm soap & aftershave

Another close shave from a fine French hoe. This may be my most aggressive hoe (gotta watch those aggressive hoes) although that may be due to the blade. It had a few nicks in the edge which required removing significant metal in order to eliminate them, leaving the blade with a slight "smile." The Le Coq uses blade stops to position the blade so this results in most of the blade edge being further forward on the comb, increasing blade gap. I'll have try it with a non-smiling blade and see if it makes a difference.

Today's shave was extremely close and smooth, although the aftershave had more than the usual bite. Then again, the Chiseled Face Groomatorium aftershaves have a pretty high alcohol content. My face feels great now.
