    Very early flight to Cambodia in the morning, so a night shave with the newly arrived Schick D with a Proline blade . I knew I was going to like this thing and I do. Shave quality near perfect -- smoother thsn my Es, Injecto-Matic, and the Enders, without any discerned hit in efficiency. The only issue is the grip is a bit awkward, when I'm flying blind on the head shave it's hard to tell by feel which way the razor is oriented. Will take some practice. Not a cheap acquisition but very well worth it.[​IMG]

    Wow! A blast from the past for sure. Mint condition tin and bottle. I thought I kept my stuff looking good, dayum. It's like you're sealing these in plastic or something during storage.

    One day I will buy a Captain's Choice metal lather bowl. Such a great looking shaving product.

    Monday SOTN

    Another close, smooth, and irritation free shave tonight with the British Gillette New Flat Bottom / Weber Bulldog combo... The La Toja lathered wonderfully and I smell great and am ready for bed. Night all.

    Today not cool enough for the ' Vetiver '...
    Good razor blades, too bad they're going to end: why do good things have to go out of production?
    Well, as a matter of fact, I have gone out of production as well! (And take that grin off your face: it does not stand in favor of your judgment!)

    And Whats New is not really suitable for a shave! To drive back home on the highway after a day of work keeps you awake, but, just out of bed...

    LOL. I'm assuming you're being facetious. This is the 2017 Special Edition REBOOT in which PAA did a set for the HTGAM Google Plus community. It's the CK base, and it's in the big tins with throwback AS bottles. The tins and bottle were limited, but the product (Oubliette) is a regular offering in the plastic tubs and new glass bottles.

    Tuesday

    Prep: Warm Shower-Stirling Scots Pine Sheep
    Soap: Crowne & Crane Thuringian Forest
    Razor: Gillette Black Handle Flare Tip Super Speed
    Blade: Gillette 7 O’Clock Green Super Stainless (6)
    Brush: Honey Farm Designs/TGN Premium Silvertip-24mmx50mm
    Aftershave: Stirling Executive Man w/Menthol


    WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angles for my beard)

    Crowne & Crane Thuringian Forest today. 20 seconds to load the Honey Farm Designs/TGN Premium Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Gillette 7 O’Clock Green SS still in the Gillette Black Handle Flare Tip SS. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Stirling Executive Man aftershave.

    Cold Water Rinse
    Tabac Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #273 Synthetic
    AutoStrop A1
    Valet AutoStrop
    CWR
    Tabac

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Tabac Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #273 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the AutoStrop A1 razor with a Valet AutoStrop blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
