    Gillette New Long Comb Razor
    Personna Lab Blue Blade
    Barbershop Boar Brush (modified)
    Love My Skin Tobacco & Bay Leaf Soap
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Tabac After Shave

    Another great shave with this razor. Two passes with just a hint of touch up for an excellent and smooth BBS shave.

    I was just about to ask what you thought of it. Seen a few around but never picked one up. How would you compare it to a SS Flare? That is if you have one.

    Yeah, have a bunch of Super Speeds and they do shave great also. I personally use Lab Blues or Israeli Personna Stainless blades with them. Sharp blades work great on Super Speeds. The New Long Comb is a bit more aggressive, but with the right blade, I get pretty smooth and comfortable shaves with it. It's a perfect razor, for me anyway, for getting BBS shaves with only two passes with a bit of touch up.

    You are correct, it is still a great aftershave. Thanks for posting the vintage bottle.
