Great set up Guy, thanks for the inspiration to go with a Fourére scented Friday.

Have a great day!​

 

You can adjust the the head front to back, or side to side. Sort of like a slant but often referred to as a "tilt" head. I like playing around with it!

 

Gorgeous Crat, Can!

WOW!

Cool Pic Rob!

 

Glad I could help Roger!

Razor: Pal Adj. Injector (3)
Brush VDH Badger
Lather: La Joja
Pre. Shave: Hibco Nag Champa
A/S: Aqua Velva/ Hibco AS Butter Balm
Newspaper Date: July 23,1945

Dialed the Pal back to where I originally had it, did three passes, WTG/ATG/ XTG with some clean up, resulting in a shave that only another fish could appreciate (no scales). I`m beginning to enjoy this Pal more each time I use it. I will have to rotate through all my injectors(5). I`m thinking of a PIF for the J1 And G4. They`re old friends, but they do duplicate some of my more recent acquisitions. I`ll have to think on it for awhile. I AM going to get rid of some more aggressive razors that I don`t use anymore. Well, Happy New Year and God Speed to all. Happy Shaving.

Lovely PAL Bill!

 

Thanks Andrew, have a great day.

 

Beautiful razor and lovely photo my friend.

 

Had not planned on going nine innings with these Schick blades of indeterminate vintage (had the Injectomatic at the ready) but hey life is full of surprises, the double Schickified Shakey went all the way. $7.99 for 11oz KMF, pretty good stuff.

(Addendum : Apparently modern Chick blades)

 

Dr. Jon has got it going on.
This was a superb shave in every aspect. The scent of 1803 is a complex combination of fruits like pineapple, florals like geranium, and a dry down that reminds me of sandalwood. It's more than that, but my nose isn't as good at picking up elements. The lather is the best vegan and easily top five of any I've used. The post shave feel is among the best as well. The aftershave carries on the great scent while providing comforting skincare. Very little burn and my skin is left soft and supple.
Prep: Myrsol Emulsion
Soap: Dr. Jon's 1803
Brush: Brothers Bristles Bronze Shadow
Razor: Merkur Futur on six
Blade: voskod
AS: Dr. Jon's 1803

SOTD December 30, 2016

Blade: Chinese Schick
Razor: Schick I1 injector
Brush: Vulfix badger
Lather: Simpson's Luxury Cream
Post: Witch hazel splash enhanced with Skin Bracer aftershave, Nivea sensitive balm
WTG, touch-up

Nice shave with Simpson's and the I1 injector. This cream lathered up so easily. Nice glide and protection. I had to touch-up a little more than normal to get a regular shave, so I think the blade wasn't the best. I changed it out for a new one for tomorrow's shave.

Have a great day!

 

My sotd

Razor - Barbasol
Brush - semogue 830
Blade - Astra sp
Soap - razorock xxx

This shave was rough!! I used a new blade so I don't know if it's the blade or the razor, but it cut me up pretty nice. I may have to try a different blade and see.

Happy shaving gents

 

Thursday morning shave

Brush: Semogue 1305, comfy, like my favorite jeans.

Lather enough for three passes, so I took advantage of the opportunity. BBS, my face even squeaked when I applied the which hazel.
