    November 1st

    Razor: 1948 British Gillette Aristocrat
    Bkade: Wilkinson Sword
    Brush: Simpson X3 Best Badger
    SS & AS: Stirling Sharp Dressed Man

    Finally I get to use this razor. It was well worth the wait as I can see why so many say it the finest razor Gillette made. The weight and balance is about perfect.

    The shave was a 2+ pass BBS with a small weeper on my chin. Nothing worth mentioning really, but honesty is what honestly is. Alum did the trick.

    I am use to much bigger knots on my brushes lately. I actually had to load a little more soap on my second pass.

    I've done some plating this weekend and decided to check the pH on my nickel bath. It was a 6, but its suppose to be 3.5-5. So I added a couple teaspoons of boric acid and now it's at a 4.4. Plated a couple test items and the performance is right back where it was. Fun times.

    Well, for an ‘unbranded Chinese horsehair’, it is certainly a cool looking handle, Barry.
    Sounds like the soap comparison is going well, Pierpaolo. I sure wish I got the T3 instead of the two T2s.
    A very informative comparison of the two razor finishes, Jeff. The Old Type is always a good ideas as well.
    Stunning, Gary. The brush is a fine match for the razor- awesome!
    Nice to be back in the saddle, Joe.
    Will follow your Pils mini-focus with interest, Clint. I’m sure it is just a matter of a few days until you conquer it again ( and until the MWF dries out...):)
    I like any holiday that results in lots of good food...A great shave as well, Joe.
    A great focus for sure, Joseph!
    Amazing colours again, Jim! What do you think of the Holy Black?
    Chris!
    I’m sure the focus will have that razor dialed in soon...welcome to the Crew!
    A stunning razor, Evan! Did you plate that one?

    I hope you did get some rest this afternoon Jim. I love your set up and picture. The blacks and golds are sharp. Excellent shave x 2!
