    A.S.Razor shave, Tue, May11th 2021, First Star lather catcher model made under the new merger American Safety Razor Corp in USA by the Kampfe brothers(Star brand) of Brooklyn NY, Gem & Everready. Star brand is know for its fine lather catchers and MFG first safety razors in USA & world!

    Razor: Star bar #4 model lather catcher- Mfg 1919-20, excellent razor, <mid range, what a great razor to use, gives me great results and a joy to use and own one, seems like a rare model to find.
    blade: Gem Personna SS PTFE (2) excellent blade, very sharp, great longevity, smooths out nicely & predictable.
    Soap: Ogallala Bayrum & sandalwood(some clove)- nice sharp scent, + great lather qualities, soap can be thirsty for better performance IMO.
    Brush: Yaqi Chianti's 24 mm synthetic, excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, gentle scrub + great lather painter.
    Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave: Witch hazel + Ogallala Bayrum & sandalwood [​IMG]+ a dollop of Nivea balm.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers = [​IMG] Excellent shave with my Star bar with a coated Gem blade.

    Wed 12th May.

    Muhle Silvertip. A-21mm
    Ach Brito Mogno
    Yaqi Raster V2
    Kai CT Protouch MG [ 1 ]
    Pitralon Classic A/S Lotion

    I know that some folk do not rate guarded blade, but with a heavy/strong beard they allow me to work away to get a great finish without cuts/weepers or post shave problems. Today used the Protouch MG, which was very good in the Razor- great finish and no A/S sting .
    This Razor is good have ordered a back up, well I could drop it?

    The Williams Mug Soap lathered well with The SlimGem Silvertip Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Stoll Jr. Lather Catcher with a Personna GEM SS PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB.

    L`Occitane Cade soap
    Yaqi Raster V2
    Kai CT Protouch MG [ 2 ]
    GB Grey Flannel A/S Lotion.

    Another fine Shave with the Yaqi, the blade is even better than it was on its first outing. This Razor may not have the cachet of a S/S Razor but It really delivers in terms of Shave performance.
