    Friday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Wash
    Proraso Sandalwood
    Jayaruh #217
    AutoStrop A1
    Modified Gem
    CWR
    Aqua Velva

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Proraso Sandalwood Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #217 brush. I did two passes with the AutoStrop A1 Safety Razor with a Modified Gem SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Aqua Velva AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
  9. Pre: Warm water splash
    Brush: anBBas Boar
    Soap: Valobra Cologne
    Razor: E-R 1924
    Blade: Gem Stainless ptfe

    Another day and another Christmas soap, and a very good one it is too.
    And it's another off-the-shelf soap that can live with the Artisans imo.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

  13. IMG_20181228_091010_113.jpg If this is what "cheap" shaving is like, then I don't wanna be rich!
    Y'all, the more I use this green mountain soap, the more I like it. I'd put it up against any other company!
    Take car guys, and stick around, I'll have baby sonogram pictures soon.

    Good day gentlemen.
    I believe that Dunshire by Stirling is the scent currently offered that is inspired by DGO. One of my faves.
    Be well!

  17. It's easy to like this setup that's for sure. :)

  18. Yup, it is the balance and weight that is the difference. On occasion I can obtain a one passm near BBS shave with the Genesis and 2 pass is BBS but with the Core always a 2 pass and still feel nubs on some sections of my face ATG but never so with the Genesis. I have to apply pressure with the Core and with the Genesis, let the weight of razor do the work.
  19. Thank you!!
