Hellow all.....
Working on my
@brit Gilette inspirational shaving.
I used a razor that has not been tried out by me yet, for my morning shave.
This poor thing is another rescue razor, tried to clean it up, but it still needs work. The handle threads are loose and in need of repair, but it still tightens up the cap on the baseplate ok.
Seems most don't put a Feather in a razor that they never used before, but I always have good luck with them.
The soap was its normal greatness, and the cheap well worn brush did it's job fine.
The first few strokes with this old piece of brass over the cheek promised great things, there were no disappointments. I'm not certin if it's that I have gotten better, or the razors I'm using are just great shavers. More than likely it's the razors, I don't think I'm that good. I have noticed when using a wore out razor, the shave is wonderful. I figure there are 2 reasons a razor is well used till its so wore out. First, the guy who owned it was unable to buy another or it just worked so good he didn't want a different one, like an old pair of jeans that just fit perfect. This razor gave me a Darn Near Perfect shave first time. A one pass head and face shave with some touchup on the chin.

No blood, burn or itching, just nice and smooth.
The Sandalwood last till about noonish or so.
This was an enjoyable shave, with a razor some would cringe just to look at. This one gets fixed and polished, its a keeper.
To all
Enjoy!
