Sunday's SE Shave


Proraso Pre Shave
Tabac Shaving Cream
Jayaruh #217
Gem 1911 Lather Catcher
Original Gem Cutlery SE
CWR
Thayer's Lemon WH
Lucky Tiger

I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Tabac Shaving Cream face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #217 synthetic brush. I did the two passes with the Gem 1911 Lather Catcher and vintage Gem Jr. blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Lucky Tiger AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

So with some help from some friends I have found out that this razor is indeed a GEM 1912 Brooklyn. Some last minute chance in todays lineup left me with another DFS. Unfortunately I'm still chasing the baby with this razor. I'm oh so close though and the chase is half the fun

Brush: Rubberset Aluminum 400 #3 w/ Boar Original knot
Soap: Route 66 Rum Runner
A/S: Fine L'Orange Noir

Thank you, Roby!

 

Another great decanter Doug. How many more do you have waiting in the wings?

 

Thanks. We'll have to wait and see.

 

9/17 -> back to the Schick Adjustable set on 7 for 3 pass + neck pick ups - 2nd shave on vintage NOS Schick Plus Patinum Teflon coated dated 1974...

I continue to be amazed by the sharpness of these schicks from the mid and late 70s!
