    Tuesday OCtober 2

    Hitting 2nd, a 101 year old, 1918 Gillette Bulldog.

    Bowl/Scuttle - GP12
    Soap - Le Pere Lucien Savon du Barbier (A+in my book)
    Brush - M&F
    Blade - Feather HI SS (4)
    Razor - 1918 Gillette Bulldog
    Post Shave - OSMA Pierre alum, Baum.BE A/S balm, Floid SE Mentolado Vigoroso A/S

    Shave rating 3.5 of 5

    First shave with this razor, was kind of show only before. I really like barber pole handles. This razor has a problem with alignment of the blade plus I noticed a very slight hairline crack in the handle. I will need to look for a replacement. I was in a bit of a rush so I didn’t want to play with the blade alignment - one side was mild, the other aggressive - so I did a careful one pass, DFS shave. This soap is great, lather and lubricity are superior.

    Looking through my stash to see what other century old Gillette razors I can pull out and use for the remainder of the week.

    Happy OCtober and great shaves everyone.

    There was a time in my youth when i could cure my insomnia by giving the wife a nudge. :sexe:

    These days i would get more than a nudge back! :angry019::angry021::rolleyes005:

    If you’re wife doesn’t have enough vigara for you when the time is right, well... she fully understand why you’re wet shaving become a vigara hobby to keep your marriage going so well together.

    Might as well stop nudging her for awhile until she ready.
