Stahly and Teck II, my favorite mild razors mano a mano. Whether it's geometry or its peculiar leaf suspension, the Stahly is immediately smoother if more picky about angle. Both perfectly efficient and capable in their ATG head shave duties. Love em both.

 

Pre: Warm water splash
Brush: Simpson Duke 3 BB
Soap: Eufros Badass
Razor: Blackland Sabre L1
Blade: Gem Stainless ptfe
Post: Warm then cold water rinse, Pitralon Classic ASL

A midweek marvel.
Happy Shaving one and all.

Shave of the Night - Vintage Shulton Old Spice LIME aftershave and cologne. Modern Old Spice Lime Shaving cream from INDIA. Yaqi (china) synthetic boar. GILETTE TECH with a Psycho Key (Razor was NOS, Key was reproduced to exact specifications by the Razor Emporium). I have been looking for New Vintage Shulton LIME Cologne bottles for a while, they where always priced way to high or the bids would get stupid, I had a few of the small travel size LIME after shaves already but the Cologne was just never around. I finally got lucky and snagged this UN OPENED - still in plastic shrink - gift set on Ebay for 40 dollars plus shipping, for me it was OUTSTANDING.... I have had a few vintage scents arrive with a spoiled scent that I trashed, well this set was NOT SPOILED what so ever!! in fact it seemed to get better with age, especially the Cologne bottle - it has such a strong Shulton scent ! Just a tiny amount is needed.. I am guessing this was set was a gift 40 plus years ago and stuffed in closet from a Climate Control house and it never saw sunlight or excessive heat.. It has no old smell at all.
