Old Spice ships from 1973-1976 had 2 flags and an anchor showing off the two bow sails.

Menthol Monday's SE Shave Proraso Pre Shave TSD Iced Lime B 400 by Tom GEM Damaskeene CVS SE CWR Thayer's Lemon WH Barbasol AS I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The TSD Iced Lime Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the B 400 badger brush by Tom. I did the two passes with the GEM Damaskeene and CVS SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Barbasol AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
No pics because I'm too lazy. But, I had my first SE Sept. GEM shave today and it's been a while. A lot of technique has been lost and I ended up with two parallel scrapes along my jugular. Hmm.... good thing I don't need to see too many people today. Wetware was Body Shoppe Maca Root SC and my @Jayaruh #167.
I feel for you, man! That happened to me once with a Clog Pruf.... third time I used the razor and a new blade. For a week, my face looked like I had been scratched by a cat. I didn't touch that razor again for months.
