    Thanks Joseph!

    I just can’t make any blade go longer than a week - they all crap out on me on the seventh shave! lol

    SOTD, Fri April 24th 2020, I was thinking about Everready(ER) razors and I picked a nice one this morning. It is the ER 1924(AKA shovel head). The razor has a front hinge and blade is loaded from the back, the shovel head gave a great shave for a light beard growth that can be harder to shave. I could use this for a daily driver if I choose to- just a nice razor with a ER streamline strop handle.

    Razor : Everready 1924(AKA shovel head) with ER streamline handle - MFG 1919-33 - great daily driver IMO.
    Blade : Gem Personna SS PTFE (8)
    Soap: Colonel Conk Bayrum- very nice slick soap with a nice mild scent of bayrum.
    Brush: Yaqi Timberwolf 24 mm- very nice soft tip with reasonable backbone brush to use IMO.
    Pre-shave: Brush wash my whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser+ a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on beard area.
    Prep: cold water rinse after each pass of 3.
    Post shave: Proraso Green with witch Hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm .
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers = [​IMG] excellent shave this morning and hit targeted sweet spot.

    Have some great shaves!

    The most I've gotten out of a blade is 6 days. I'm usually at 3 to 5 uses depending on the blade. 7 is big numbers.
