    Today was another pleasant shave with my 1956 (B) Gillette SS Flaretip with a fresh BIC blade. Being it was afresh blade, I did get a little feedback from the alum bar. Still very nice 2-pass shave with cleanup.

    1956 (B) Gillette Super Speed Flaretip
    BIC blade 1st use
    Castle Forbes "Lavender"
    Proraso White Pre-shave
    Simpson T1 Trafalgar synthetic brush
    Thayers Toner with Witch Hazel & Aloe
    Captain's Choice "Venture" A/S Balm

    It's always nice shave with my SS Flaretip. The BIC blade is VERY sharp! Nice and smooth. I did raise a couple red spots but, the alum took care of them. Minor feedback from the alum bar. Shaved WTG, ATG, and minor cleanup. This may be a mild razor but, it shaves very close with a fresh blade! I had not used Lavender in a long time and when I saw Joe use it, I just hadta use mine!

    I hope all have a great day. Low profile for me......sore from mowing.

    I like how the colors of the mat blend in with the razor.

    1992? Looks like it says 1967 on the product. But still, 1992 qualifies.
