Lather Catcher Sunday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Vintage Life Licorice Shave Soap
Olivewood Silvertip
J.A. Henckels Rapide
J.A. Henckels Wedge
CWR
Aqua Velva Musk AS

The Vintage Life Licorice Shave Soap face-lathered well with Olivewood Silvertip Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the J.A. Henckels Rapide Lather Catcher razor with a J.A. Henckels Wedge blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Muhle Silvertip “S” 21mm
Mondial Tabacco Verde
Occams Enoch
Schick Proline ( 4 )
Pitralon Classic A/S Lotion

Not always sure how it will go with this Razor, as sometimes I get the angles wrong. Today was a dream, smooth and comfortable with a nice close finish. That little brush is a perfect partner for the soap, no overspill at all, as this
Is currently my travel soap I think that the little Muhle is likely to travel too.

Muhle Silvertip S-21mm
Tabac stick
Hiram Commander / plate 2
Feather Pro ( 5 )
Tabac A/S lotion

Though the Hiram might be expected to be cumbersome during a Shave, because of its Size/ Weight. In fact once in the hand and in action it is very manouvreable and the weight seems to disappear. It is very good when working against the grain, as the curve on the hanA very nice Shave today, and apart from around the nostrils the finish is a “Face Stroker”

 

Very very nice Sir.
I had a great shave with this OC Kampfe Bros. Star.

Wed 28th October

Muhle Silvertip 21mm
Williams Mug Soap
ER 1924
Gem S/S ( 3 )
Williams Aqua Velva A/S lotion

The 1924 is deemed to be quite aggressive, but once mastered delivers excellent Shaves. For many years I have been using one with a longer handle, and today delivered the kind of finish that I expect from an AC/SE.

 

I can't choose my fav version of Wabbit.
