Gillette Tech razor (triangle slots)
Treet Dura Sharp blade
Shave Revolution brush

Shave of the Week Starting 7 June 2021

Yintal razor
Gillette Wilkinson blade
WD Synthetic brush
Proraso Green SS

Got the Yintal from the Magical Traveling Box recently. Didn't know what to expect from it but, boy, am I ever surprised!! Paired up with the Gillette Wilkinson blade, it was an easy comfortable 2 pass BBS event. I'll have to use this one for awhile just to be sure today wasn't a fluke. Like Popeye used to say, "Well blow me down". My face is extremely happy. Now go enjoy your day folks

Polish Citrus Week with Lider & Makler

 

1. Shave of the Week Starting 21 June 2021
   
   Pal 3 piece razor (British made)
   GSB or Astra blade
   Burma Shave Boar brush
   Viking "Citron" SS
   Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
   Assorted A/S
   
   Rummaging through my shave cabinet again and ran across this Pal razor. British made and aluminum, I didn't hold out high hopes that the shave would be anything special. Well, was I ever wrong! This is a really delightful, lightweight shaver that worked ever so well for me. The Burma Shave boar is nicely broken in and does a fine job building up a nice lather. The Viking "Citron" SS is a really fine product too. Not much left so I think I'll just keep using it till it's gone. Might take a couple three weeks but that's ok. Like I said, nice soap. So, my face is very happy. Now go enjoy your day folks

 

Shave of the Week Starting 28 June 2021

Yintal razor
Voshkod blade
FS Silver Tip brush
Viking "Citron" SS
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Assorted A/S

Had to have another go with the Yintal razor. I was afraid that the last outing with it might have been a fluke and that this razor would suck this time around. Wrong! This is, for me, a fantastic shaver. Got a 2 pass DFS+ shave with no nicks, no cuts, no errors. My face is very happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

Weber DLC razor
Gillette Silver Blue blade
Lea Menthol SC
JR #85 brush
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe

Mighty fine shave to start the week with. I do believe that, although razors come and go, the Weber will never leave. Always a right fine shave with it. My face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

Rotbart #15 razor
Silver Star blade
FS/WD boar brush
Seaforth! Spiced SS
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Seaforth! Spiced A/S

Mighty fine shave to start the week with. Love the Seaforth! shave soaps, they just work marvelously for me and smell oh so nice. The FS/WD boar brush is a good one. Very soft from the get go jus gets a little tangled now and then. But, all in all, a great start to the week. My face is very happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

First outing with the SNMIRN razor and am I ever surprised! Found it on A***n for $9.99 shipped and thought, "what the heck" so I got one. It worked surprisingly well. I'll do a review after using it this week but the first try is very encouraging. My face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

 

Nope

 

I am very interested in the new Seaforth! stuff. Have you tried the Heather line?
