SE SOTD, Wed, Dec 09th 2020 Razor: Gem Micromatic open comb- MFG 1930 -41, Excellent mid range, if you can not get a close shave technique needs improvement. Blade: Gem Personna SS PTFE (10) Excellent blade, very sharp, great longevity and smooths out nicely & predictable. Soap: Colonel Conk Bayrum, mild scent with excellent lather qualities. Great soap & a Bargain IMO. Brush: Yaqi tuxedo knot 24 mm with black marble handle, excellent lather creator with cloud like soft tips with some backbone.

DScosmetics DS-Z.O & Gillette Nacet Stainless PAA 26mm Atomic Rocket LNHC Ouzoud shave soap Wholly Kaw King of Bourbon a/s splash Acqua di Parma Oud eau de parfum Just a real good shave. The Nacet was just slightly tuggy but, it managed to complete a 2 pass shave. A new one for the next. A wonderful evening and shaves to all...
It has been several days, since the last shave, so, I broke out this newly Bought, Restored, and Honed razor. It cut through the heavy beard, like a hot knife through butter. BBS results. This is one fantastic shaving blade. I have several blades coming from Little Valley NY, and all are excellent razors. This is my first CASE Bros. Razor- Case Bros. "Tested". Little Valley NY. Full Hollow. Aluminum Scales Brush- B400 By Tom (@twhite ). Omega Boar knot Soap- AOS "OUD". great scent. Newly acquired. Aftershave- Vintage Avon Spicy. Buffalo Nickel decanter.

First use of the Feather AS-D2. Was expecting a mild razor and it was but surprised me with such a smooth good shave. Am thinking this will replace my edwin jagger de89 and my merkur 34c. Used a Personna Lab blue blade on third use. Will have to try a feather blade next time with this razor.

SOTD : 10th December 2020. Shaving recipe for today. Prep: Warm shower / Cussons Imperial Leather ~ Arctic Ocean & Icelandic Moss Shower Gel. Pre: Cold wet flannel to my face. Yardley ~ English Lavender Bar Soap + Wilko Men's shave Oil. Brush : Omega S10018. Bowl Lather. Tesco's Ceramic 'Cosmo' Side Bowl. Lather : Palmolive Classic Shave Cream. Blade: Mers ~ Super Shave X Platinum. (4) Razor: Parker ~ 55SL Semi-Slant. Post: Cold Water Face Rinse./Homemade (~Winter mix~) peppermint Lavender, + eucalyptus, Tea Tree Oil Witch Hazel Mixture./ Denim Original ASL./ Aloe Vera Gel. Greetings, Today i went for a hybrid combo of 'Modern/Old School' shave set up. The dependable Palmolive classic shave cream provided a slick protective lather in a short space of time.... When ever i mention to family and friends that 'I still wear Denim' i get some vague interesting looks and comments....Not that this concerns me in anyway,, the younger chaps that i work with don't understand the greatness of Denim which is a pity, but it's their loss if they can't appreciate a classic 'Old School' fragrance...A enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report....Finishing the shave off with a small dollop of Aloe Vera Gel. My face is feeling super smooth & smelling very 'Old School' divine, but i love it!. Stay safe, and enjoy your Day ladies & gentlemen.

2020-12-10 Thursday It's just a little while before the weekend when I can do what I do every other day: it's great! And I keep trying the Finest. I've made an amazing discovery: it's a brush like any other. Today I loaded the tips only, which continue to be stingy, but already less than before, and, anyway, pleasantly. Whipping gently, using only the tips makes a nice lather. I think I would post this on my FB profile if I had one. This makes me sad: I don't know where to post it and.... restrain from giving inappropriate suggestions!
