    Shavette Shave # 159

    Rating: 5 / 5

    Razor: Univinlions Feather SS
    Bullpen - Dollar Tree
    Blade: Feather Pro Super
    Bullpen - GSB
    Brush: Ever Ready 200T
    Lather: Stache Soap Works E Barber
    Aftershave: Floid Genuine
    Additional Care:

    Veey nice shave this morning with the assistance of the bullpen. The Feather Pro Super evidently was in it’s last leg. After two pass I decided to bin the blade and call in the bullpen. The Dollar Tree razor with the GSB easily finished of the final pass which results led in a very close shave.
    I hope you all have a great day gentlemen.

    I've had theses samples for about two years now and finally decided to give them a go. The Smoky Mountain Rain and the Honey Mash seem to have the same base. The soaps perform great and I have no complaints....builds a lather quick, is slick and cushiony. The Honey Mash has a great scent and is unique.

    I think you will like it. I plan on ordering from them...just trying to figure which one to go with.

    Take care.

    Do you have a razor that shaves better than the New Deluxe?

    i love all my gillettes..;)..my deluxe would see more shave time if the plating was intact or replated.preferenbly in nickel or rhodium.project for down the line..:).i use a mint new lc cap with it when using it so it helps with the old penny smell.not really a big deal but i don't use it for daily shaves..:eatdrink047:my preference at present is the brit tech hybrid..;)

    I have to admit that my New Deluxe is one of the top shavers in the den. It amazes me at how well a 90 year old razor shaves compared to my modern razors. I see a lot if the New's design in some of the moderns.

    I've been researching nickel plating. I may try and give it a go sometimes. I would really like to have a nickel New Type sc and lc. I have the razors. I just need to get set up. It looks like it will not take much.

    Take care.
