E-R 1912 Sun Ray Gem Stainless ptfe Shock, horror, the sun was shining this morning and so the Sun Ray was called for. Happy Shaving one and all.
I've read about the Bunny razor sometime in the past. I my memory correct that Tom White was the inventor/maker of this razor? Is the razor on the market/commercialized?
SE Sunday's Shave Cold Water Wash LaToja Shaving Stick Jayaruh #330 J.A. Henckels J.A. Henckels wedge CWR Pinaud Vanilla My prep was just a cold water rinse. The LaToja Shaving Stick face lathered well with the Jayaruh #330 brush. I did two passes with the J.A. Henckels Safety Razor with a J.A. Henckels wedge blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Pinaud Vanilla AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
SOTD 01/05/19-01/06/19 Schick Injector (L-1) Schick Injector Blade (1) JR-336 Stirling Spice SS Stirling Spice AS Had a great two pass shave yesterday and this morning. The Stirling Spice gave excellent cushion as well as being super slick as I almost dropped my Razor twice due to lather getting on my fingers. The JR-336 facelathered the Stirling Spice with no problems and the lather was perfect. Thank you Jim for making a brush that has just the right amount of backbone, this brush is awesome. Followed up my shave with a splash of the Stirling Spice AS and my face feels great with no irritation whatsoever. Clayton Sent from my LG-K450 using Tapatalk
Nice looking setup Jim. What type of knot did you use in your brush?, and is it made with maple?. Clayton Sent from my LG-K450 using Tapatalk

I haven’t quite dialed in this razor yet and it was a bit rough on my neck. Still happy I am using such a great piece of engineering history.

Mon 7th Jan. Cyril Salter / Maseto ED 2 Band P & B Pall Mall Schick J3- Golden 500 Schick Proline [ 3 ] Floid Vigoroso A/S Lotion Today I did a follow up Shave to that of yesterday, this Golden 500 having a Schick Proline AC blade fitted rather than the Japanese Schick Injector blade. Shave wise it felt not too dissimilar to that of yesterday, smooth yet effective. The quality of the finished Shave was equally as good except on my troublesome lower jawline. I am quite pleased that I repurchased the Floid A/S as it has an invigorating kick and a pleasant scent.
Colonial General Brass Schick Proline P A wonderful beginning to the week. Happy Shaving one and all.
