Seeing as I love Open Comb razors, and it is OCtober; I thought I'd post in here as well....probably will the whole month (and beyond). This 1905 Double Ring really, REALLY gave me a great shave today. 2-passes (a little jawline touch-up) and I was blood-free, irritation-free and stubble-free for DFS+/BBS- shave! The razor is in great shape (no cracks, straight teeth), but the case is little beat-up -- of course I'm 60 years younger and so am I.

 

OCtober 1st, I had to blow the dust off my Razorock old type razor, its a mild but important razor when I travel. I do not want nicks or weepers when in foreign countries that could expose myself to unknowns. This razor is a easy going, carefree & inexpensive so if lost nothing to cry about & have used it a lot over the yrs but has been replaced recently with my Razorock SLOC.

Razor: Razorock old type
Blade: Derby Premium (3)
Soap: The Dead Sea by Razorock
Pre shave: Brush wash face with CeraVe soap
Post shave: Alum block + cold water rinse
Post shave : Razorock "The Dead Sea" A.S with witch hazel + Nivea balm
Results: CCS,DFS,bBS + Alum indicated no irritation + no weepers =



Have some great shaves!

Tuesday OCtober 1

First OC shave of the month.
Hitting leadoff, a 113 year old, 1906 Gillette single ring model 100.

Bowl/Scuttle - GP12
Soap - La Savonniere du Moulin (A+ in my book)
Brush - Rubberset 400-3
Blade - Feather HI SS (3)
Razor - 1906 Gillette model 100
Post Shave - OSMA Pierre alum, Stirling Ramblin' Man A/S Splash

Shave rating 5 of 5

What a nice shave this razor gave. No wonder these razors were popular. This soap might be my favorite soap as well. I know it's not MWF, I'll do that tomorrow on a "W" day. 2 pass shave with NO need for partial cleanup passes. 1st pass was WTG and DFS+ and I could have stopped there but I got greedy. Did the 2nd pass XTG on my face and ATG on my neck area. Greedy part came with the ATG on my neck area and I pressed a bit too hard to try to get everything in the 2nd pass and caused myself some irritation that I felt when applying the alum and A/S. Other than that misstep on my part, a GREAT shave from this old-timer.

Tomorrow, considering another old-timer, a 1918 Gillette Bulldog.

Happy OCtober and great shaves everyone.
