Friday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Pharoah's Dreamsicle
Bunny B-400 by Tom
TAR by Tom
Gillette Silver Blue
Pharoah's Dreamsicle AS

The Pharoah's Dreamsicle Shave Soap face-lathered well with Bunny B-400 by Tom badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the TAR by Tom with a Gillette Silver Blue blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pharoah's Dreamsicle AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Good morning

 

It is massive for sure. It is pretty aggressive, too. It requires riding the cap for me. Also, because of the weight, you have to hold it back a bit. You do however get used to it after 4 or 5 days.

 

This is another of the razors I sent out to Glen for a rehone. Holy cow - this one jumped up at least a notch and a half in performance. Absolutely fantastic shave today. I was ready to give up on this one. Glad I didn’t.

Not only was the shave sharp and smooth, it’s about as close to a “bling” razor as I have. I’ve added a second photo highlighting the spine work.

Happy shaving - Karl

 

The Segal Adjustable (c.1947ish) may be of minor historic interest as the first with click settings (?) but I've never found it to be a particularly good shaver either in terms of smoothness or efficiency. Not a bad shave (Suneko on most aggressive setting) but I still had a lot of pick ups for the Enders Speed.
