    Thank you Gary. I used to use Cremo a lot for a long time. Then I started acquiring a few then a few more soaps, now I have much more than a few soaps. With the variety I don't reach for the Cremo very often anymore. It really is a great soap though.

    RR 400. SE-Plissoft noir
    P & B Spitfire
    RR S/S Hawk V3 / A Plate
    Schick Proline ( 5 )
    P & B Spitfire A/S Splash

    I find this Hawk to be very forgiving yet efficient. I had a really nice relaxing Shave with a very satisfyingly close finish.

    Damaskeene Open Comb
    Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Osage Rub

    The TSD Iced Lime Shave Stick face-lathered well with Jayaruh #417 Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Damaskeene Open Comb razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    The Grosvenor [ 404-mixed]
    Monsavon au lait
    Occams Enoch
    Schick Proline [5 ]
    Pitralon Polar A/S Lotion

    The soap arrive just in time for a late Shave, as out shopping for new tumble drier.Found it to deliver a nice creamy lather to Shave with.Enjoyed the Shave, finish in places a bit patchy, for me The Hawk V3 is a better proposition.

    Razor: Gem Damaskeene open comb- MFG 1912-15, very nice lower Mid range razor, this razor & improved Variant's made GEM MFG prosper for decades.
    Soap: Proraso Red Sandalwood, nice mild scent, with great slickness for protection.
    Brush:Yaqi 24mm Tuxedo knot syn Sagrada Familia- Excellent lather creator with cloud like soft tips for lather painting.
    Pre shave: Brush wash my face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on beard area.
    Prep: cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave: Proraso red Sandalwood with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= [​IMG] excellent shave with my Gem Damaskeene 1912, the real McCoy 1912. Winter comes along my beard gets drier and tougher it seems. Results get weaker IMO.

    After a great shave yesterday all that was needed today was a light clean up. The MMOC may have been a little overkill for the job. However the same was very enjoyable.

    Gem Contour II mk1, gem stainless ptfe blade, shave 4
    CIImk1.jpg

    First shave witb a mk1 Contour II, they came in 3 makes I know of and I'll be using all 3 in a row to see if there is any differences. Shave was mild and came in a little bit less close than the prior razor I used which was a gold plated Gem Push Button.

    Here are the 3 styles of Contour II razors
    mk1 on the left
    mk2 in the middle
    mk3 on the right
    CII3xa.jpg CII3xb.jpg

    I don't anticipate there being any differences between the mk2 and mk3 but the mk1 might be different from the others. Next shave will tell that much.

    Tues 6th Oct.

    Omega 11126 boar
    Monsavon au lait
    RR S/S Hawk V3-OC
    Kai Captain Titan Mild/Pink [ 6 ]
    Jaguar Prestige A/S Lotion

    Took my time on the Shave, but really the finish though not bad may be improved with a change of blade. Second use of the Monsavon soap, responds well to a wetter brush than I would normally use.

    Williams Wednesday's Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Soap
    Jayaruh #417
    Blue Wabbit V3, Personna Injector
    AutoStrop A1 OC, Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Aqua Velva Iced Blue

    The Williams Mug Soap face-lathered well with Jayaruh #417 Brush. I had planned for today's shave to be with the AutoStrop A1, but a little Blue Wabbit hopped in and wanted to play. So, I used the Wabbit with a Personna blade on the right side of my face and the AutoStrop A1 OC razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE blade on the left for a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Iced Blue. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    The Wabbit V3 was excellent. I am waiting on magnets to finish it off, but it promises to be a waskley wazor.
