    Brush: PAA Atomic Rocket
    Razor: 1953 Gillette President
    Blade: Shark SS
    Soap: PAA Lo Haiku
    Aftershave: Hai Karate
    This was my first shave with the Gillette President and it was a very smooth shave. That could be because I used a Shark SS blade which is very mild to me. Tomorrow I’ll shave with the President razor loaded with a sharper blade. Either a Voskhod, Bolzano, Rapira Platinum Lux or Gillette Silver Blue. I want to work my way up the blades before I load a Feather blade in this beauty. Using the Shark SS I got a DFS but I think I can improve upon that upping the sharpness of my blade of choice.
