    IMG_20220418_163031_225.jpg Now I have these ready for tomorrow. Haven't decided on other gear yet.

    My Super Speed might not look great to some, but I don't mind if a razor from 1957 does not look like it's brand new. It shaves very well though! There is something about TTO-razors that I enjoy.

    Razor: Dollar Tree DE
    Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
    Brush: Ever Ready 200T
    Lather: Lakewood Soap Company Smokeberry
    Aftershave: Derby City Chop Shop Small Batch Tonic- Winter Reserve
    Additional Care:
    Stirling Alum Block

    Another excellent three pass shave with the Dolar Tree/GSB combination. The blade has been tossed following the shave. I press a sample disc of the Lakewood Soap Company Smokeberry into the Van Yulay travel honeycomb bowl. I will get several shave fro this disc.

    My face is smooth and irritation free which has been confirmed by a silent alum report. Looking forward to another day in the Sun. Enjoy your day gentlemen.

    Fine shave this morning, with Stoylin Sheep soap and Bill Neumann A.S. I see the results of the "left-to-right" direction of loading. Got to keep going with that. Solid 1st pass. I felt I didn't NEED a second, but went ahead anyway. I suppose I went a little too hard, as red polka dots were forming ..3 in all. No pain, they were just THERE. Other than that, face and neck were both clean, fresh, and ready for the Bill Neumann. No cuts, Knicks, and 3 polka dots(as mentioned). But the cold-water rinse and the Bill Neumann took care of the "red things" very nicely. Heartwood's a great classic scent. I'm all set to go watch the Boston Marathon now :). Outta This World Excellent.

    TTO razors were the go gear for my dad, my granddad, and uncles when I was a kid. Glad that some modern razors still use that design.

    Thanks, Joe!
    Love the design, and it's great that they are still being made.

    I also enjoy the simplicity of three piece razors. Why not two piece as well.

    Thanks Joe. I think it's important to share wetshaving when an opportunity arises. It would be great if it was the norm for men to wetshave.
