new sc/karve.gsb,stirling..

 

Lovely gear! As you know, I am also a big Karve fan. You should post this in the KROC thread as well. What plate do you have on the razor?

 

thank you Jeff.its a 1930s gillette new short comb head.i bought the karve 3" handle for my gillette new deluxe razor originally,but tried it on the new sc head ,fits the small cut out on the baseplate.very happy about that..

 

Lovely! You should still post it in the KROC thread. Hybrids count!

 

thank you Jeff i'll test the waters,but it lacks the business end of the karve razor.the handle is just a handle....

 

Great looking brush!

11/20/2019 - Williams Wednesday

RazoRock 400 Noir Plissoft Synthetic Shaving Brush
Timeless Shaving Bowl
Williams Mug Soap
Above the Tie – Atlas, R2 Plate
Astra SP Blade
Nivea Post Balm
Pinaud Clubman Classic

The Williams was feeling neglected this morning so it had to make an appearance. Williams is just a soap that works and is nothing special. I added a splash of Clubman to the lather while whipping it up and that added a nice little scent to the lather. No blooming necessary!

Alum was quiet due to the excellent job from the ATT razor and I am really getting this thing dialed in. The baby was in the den this morning!

Finished up with some Nivea post balm and the Clubman.

I hope everyone has a great day! Take care.

 

cool shave and pic Danny..
