    Menthol Monday's Shave
    [​IMG]

    Cold Water Rinse
    C.O. Bigelow Shave Cream
    Jayaruh #424 Synthetic
    47 Gillette Aristocrat
    Gillette Silver Blue
    CWR
    Humphrey's Witch Hazel
    Osage Rub

    The C.O. Bigelow Shave Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #424 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the 47 Gillette Aristocrat Razor with a Gillette Silver Blue Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    That's awesome. It looks in great shape. I had mine replated since it was worn pretty well. It was my first find back in 2012. I did not know what I had found at the time.

    You're late in the game? Heck, I never had a decent shave until I was 75 years old, that and you turning me on to Brit Flat Bottoms and Brit Raised Flat Bottoms. :D It really is hard to believe that I've not used a shaving brush until these past 4 years or so. :happy088:

    Beautiful! I have always told myself that I wouldn't put out the money for one of these expensive British Gillettes, but I think I'm going to have to give in.
