    Ok I have a question. On the shave with it, I have several blades. I really like astra sp and Wilkinson sword classic. Which would you use with the senator?

    Now it looks like we are all suffering from RAD. If you could only keep one razor which one would it be? For me it would be my property of us army old type.

    I like Astra SP blades and have not yet shaved with any Wilks, so given those choices, I'd try the Wilks just because. I have not had bad luck with any of PPI blades.

    Hmm, I would have to simply ignore the question altogether.

    My NEW Short Comb. It's my current favorite.

    Absolutely beautiful and the Sen is a super nice score! I will go with @Rev579 on the Sen...I got my Sheraton on his recommendation and it is one of the finest razors I own.

    Thank you! I’m fixing to give the 66 a try. I’m still soaking the Senator it’s gonna clean up nicely! Then I’ll have to wait a couple days to shave since I’m shaving so late tonight. I can’t get a five o’clock shadow. It’s more like a 48 hour shadow. Or more. Lol.

    Ok. First run. Used Wilkinson Sword Classic blade. Dubl Duck M2 aluminum brush. Mama bears bay rum soap. Really loved it. I’m a huge old type fan but this razor was really easy for me to use.
