    Well instead of teasing people maybe I should make a real post.

    I used the RR BBS with GSB blade and the Tabac stick soap, vs the Voskhod I'd chosen for the 1 week challenge. and indeed I did get a better shave, but not perfect. So tomorrow putting the Lucky Tiger Cream back in and see if I get back to the perfect shaves I've been having.
    If so the Vos will be kept to pair to my ATT S1/S2,
    and yes, I'm going off schedule with the 1 week challenge but it is the scientific method!

    Haven't tried my Bic blade yet. I understand it is a bit sharper than GSB and less than Feather. Feather irritates me no matter what I'm using. So I'm either going to tie the GSB in the RazoRock BBS (could not be much better) or get irritated.

    Gillette: Super Speed Black tip (X3) 1952.
    Blade: Astra Superior Platinum (4)
    Brush: Oscar 11 Blue and Clear handle w/ Omega Professional 10049 Boar
    Soap: Reef Point Admiralty
    Aftershave: Floid Blue
    Bowl: Junichi Tanaka Astisaral Pedestal

    Good afternoon fellow shavers. Today unlike any other I shaved with the same equipment. If that makes sense I'm sorry. I'm not going to use the Oscar 11 Blue and Clear handle w/ Omega Professional 10049 Boar brush next shave. I am broken hearted! :sad024:I love this brush. You will be happy to know that I have another work of art from Oscar 11.
    Todays shave was nothing short of amazing. All equipment work well together. I still really enjoy the Reef Point Admiralty soap.
    Today is my 4th shave with this blade. I went back and changed my last shave to (3). Xin loi.

    Thank you Andrew! The tang can be the portion of the blade where it meets the shoulder of the blade or the metal part that sticks out past the pin which is sometimes called the monkey tail.

    Very nice shave, Evan! When I go ATG on stache, I tighten that area with a slightly open mouth. Doing this gives me a smooth surface to easily shave it.

    Thanks Jeff! Yes, especially when it comes to money. At one time, I was a full charge bookkeeper and a bank teller.

    It's too bad Danny @Hembree hasn't been around in 5 months. I believe he would appreciate your generosity.

    Thanks Evan! I have said it many times, I like and enjoy all my straight razors. They all have different qualities. Obviously, Mad Mad is my top favorite because of the shave I get from it and that she truly is a stunner. Everyone has their top favorite razor that gives them pure joy while shaving. It's one of the great things about this hobby.
