    Razor and handle are meant for each other Mark. I like the brush as well. :happy096:

    Used the Futur clone that arrived this week. Set it to 3 for the first pass and 4 for the 3rd pass, but used the Schick for the one in between. Honestly I wasn't particularly struck by either. First use of both. Used a GSB blade which was nice

    Bulldog Face Wash
    JR168 synthetic brush
    Tabac soap
    QShave Futur clone
    (And one pass with the Schick)
    Gillette Silver Blue
    A little alum, and
    Nivea Sensitive Post Shave Balm

    Good result but less pleasant experience than using the Rocket or New. Might not last long before going away in the cupboard.

    Concord razor
    GSB blade
    WD Silver Tip brush
    TBS Maca Root SC
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Barbasol Brisk A/S w/added menthol

    Another nice shave out of the Concord, smooth and comfortable. All the parts liked each other and my face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks

    Doug, I'll let others speak for themselves, but I think your compliments of our shave setups are wonderful, not to mention encouraging . (If I said that once before, there it is again :).

    Here it is for Wednesday's shave

    same as Monday and Tuesday, but...ahhh, I'll essay it out!

    prep-Nivea 4 Men Bodywash(Energy)in shower
    shave-Rte 66 Soap (Cavendish)*
    brush-Stirling Synthetic("lil bruddder")
    razor-Pivot Emporium by Gillette Sensor Deuce DisposeABLE
    A.S.-Clubman Special Reserve*

    *I
    was going to cut back on the 66 combination for a while, as it was getting low(the soap that is..still plenty of the Clubman A.S.), but a couple more shaves with it this week won't make that much difference.

    nice photo. I'd love to get a brush holder, but my sink area is too small for it(along with everything else that "fits" on it).

    Good shave today. A very nice 2 pass shave without any touch ups or buffing. The new Super blade had something to do with that, yet it feels very nice paired up with the BG. A slight more blade feel and yet smooth on every stroke. The AoS cream lives up to its reputation and provides good protection and glide with a very nice post shave feel. The balm is icing on the cake. Have a great evening and shaves Gents.... :shaver

    Williams Wednesday's Shave

    Proraso Pre Shave
    Williams
    Jayaruh #241
    Gillette Slim
    Gillette Silver Blue
    CWR
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Barbasol AS

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Williams Mug Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #241 synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Gillette Slim adjustable razor with a Gillette Silver Blue 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...
