SOTD Wednesday
Day 2 with the RazoRock Eco. It was a bit more comfortable this morning. I still find it a bit "brisk", though I am beginning to think it's the Crown blade and not so much the razor. I am used to a Schick injector that is so smooth and sharp I often have to check there is a blade in the razor. Still, I am not complaining. Overall, a great shave. I know it will feel better each day.

I give RazoRock credit for coming up with an inexpensive half DE blade, SE razor. Full points to them. Once I get it dialed in, I know it's going to be a keeper for sure.

Tomorrow I will switch blades and use one that I am more familiar with like a GSB.

Thank you Doug.

 

Love the handle on that Thäter, Clint.

 

Beautiful photo and gear, Kevin. Is that a single-sided blade? (Not sure if that's the correct terminology)

Fantastic shave. Rich creamy lather that was super slick. So nice. Really wish I could have taken a picture.

 

Top-notch shave, Mark.

 

You take very nice photos, James.

 

Thank you, Joseph!

Yup, new razor. Today was shave five with it and I'm in love. One more shave with it tomorrow then I'll go back to the SE's.

 

Williams Wednesday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Shave Soap
Jayaruh #206
Dad's Schick E3
Personna Injector
CWR
Cella After Shave Balm

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Williams Mug Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #206 Brush. I did two passes with Dad's Schick E3 razor with a Personna Injector Blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Cella After Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Thanks Primo

Wednesday morning:

Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed/Shark day 4
Super Max Menthol SC
Prep ASB
Mennen Skin Bracer AS Splash

This Super Max Menthol cream is one of the items I found when I went down to my storage locker to get some blades last week. It’s from Bulgaria and it has a nice, although weird kind of scent but it lathers terrifically. It’s not a face-freezer but you can still feel a decent cooling sensation from it and the postshave care is pretty good. There’s nothing like a nice massage with the Prep and a couple of splashes of the Skin Bracer. I only had time for two passes but I had a great BBS shave nonetheless!
