    Nothing wrong with a shavette, as long as you had a good shave.

    They shave wonderfully as long as one stays in practice. Very handy as well.

    Late posting of a late morning 'my-day-off' shave. A few favorites: MdC soap and a Greaves chopper.
    I've had the TSD 'Atershave milk' (extra menthol!) for a number of years now and its still as soothing as ever!

    Birthday razor from @Steveclarkus. Wester Brothers appears to be the result of the McKinely Tariffs whereby the American company was established to be the sole importer of their German made razors. The net net for us is a wonderfully made steel from which to shave.

    Tonight's shave is with a little known, German Made razor. I had a super smooth 2 pass shave, that left me smooth as possible. Zero issues, and a fine shaving razor.

    Razor- "Brandt #115". M.L.Brandt Co. Made in Germany.
    Brush- JR#262. WD Silvertip Badger.
    Soap- AOS "Kingsman" Bourbon.
    Aftershave- Vintage Avon Spicy. Viking Horn Decanter.

    Geneva Pyramid 7 6/8 width. @Steveclarkus said I needed to experience American steel last year. I found this Geneva late on a Saturday afternoon in 2018 for $17. I don't think I have a better shaving razor in my collection.

    As do all my shaving razors, this one has a 200k diamond edge.
