    Reef Point Submariner today. 20 seconds to load the JB/Elite Manchurian White brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Vintage Gillette Platinum Plus still in the Fat Boy. Excellent smooth, close shave. I finished with Reef Point Submariner aftershave.

    Excellent shave with the PAL Injecto-Matic this morning. Three passes for a dolphin smooth and refreshing finish. Enjoy your day friends. :)

    Another in a series of optimal shaves with my Rockwell 6s. Plate R6 works great with voskhod blades. I'm going to see how many I can get from this blade, since some say this razor extends blade life. Today was the fourth with no discernable reduction in comfort. Monaco Royale is top three lather, though I wouldn't mind if the scent was stronger. Same for the splash. On me, the scent fades rather quickly, but my skin feels great.
    Prep: Chattilon Lux Butter
    Soap: Wholly Kaw Monaco Royale
    Brush: Brothers Bristles Bronze Shadow
    Razor: Rockwell 6s R6
    Blade: voskhod
    AS: Wholly Kaw Monaco Royale Toner[​IMG]

    Smooth and comfortable shave... but I had to change the blade to the ATG pass with a fresh one as I started to feel the blade a bit dull and tugging. After the sub the shave finished uneventfully and smoothly.


    Have a wonderful Sunday mates!

    No disappointment today, despite its reputation for mildness the Bullet Tip to me did not seem at all inefficient, very minor buffing after two passes required, much better then the G-Bar and Push Button. Cap flat and long strokes as designed. SS blade today.[​IMG]
