    Pretty neat Scott, love seeing simple products in setups. That 10049 is beginning to look like it's enjoying being used too!

    Prep = Cold Water Prep and shave, Tabac in a tube as Pre shave
    Soap = TOBS tobacco leaf
    Brush = Old Vulfix 1000A
    Bowl = Timeless
    Razor = Gillette 1950s Rocket
    Blade = Shark Super Stainless (1)
    Passes = 2 + Post = CWR, alum, CWR, Thayers, PR Rinfrescante ASL
    Scent = Bulgari Wood Essence
    Damage = none, nice workmanlike pre-work shave

    Score = 9/10
    Comments = Easy safe shave with the Rocket and the Shark. Great start to the week. Time pressured this morning, but instead of hurrying I just abbreviated the shave. Good enough for work anyway.

    My main goal is to avoid any damage, I am happy to say with DE shaves this is turning out to be the rule rather than the exception. Pity I discovered that so late in life

    Hope your Mondays turn out super fine

    Excellent setup and shave. Chris. It's prudent to get a decent shave without undue pressure.

    Hello all.

    I don't post enough here due to time but today is different.
    Sorry.

    After not shaving Saturday or Sunday morning, I couldn't take it any more.

    20240115_113818.jpg

    So loading a new feather blade into my DEvette, I had a blade in the Razorock SS Hawk V3 from Friday mornings shave.
    The face got a wonderful lather using distilled water in Tabac, and a 2 pass shave with the DEvette.
    The gourd got the same lather treatment but I used the V3 single pass to finish out the blade.

    I feel much better now, much, much better.


    Enjoy

    Shavette Shave # 221 - 1508.5 Project - WTF Vintage Barbershop

    Rating: 5 / 5

    Razor: The Holy Black (Facia)
    PAA Type L - Not Picutured - (Cupola)
    Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
    Brush: Ever Ready 500
    Pre-Shave: Pears Soap - Mint Extract
    Lather: WTF Vintage Barbershop
    Aftershave: WTF Vintage Barbershop
    Additional Care:
    Maggards Alum
    Nivea Sensitive Balm
    Thayer’s Witch Hazel - Original

    Another outstanding shave with the WTF Vintage Barbershop. The Ever Ready 500 ( Badger) whipped up an awesome amount of lather. As a result of my desire not to let a good lather go to waste, I decided to do a head shave. The missus definitely would not be pleased if I was in the Northern Den.

    Three passes on the face and two passes on the dome have me looking and smelling good. I am ready for whatever the day brings here in the Southern den.

    Hope you all have a great day gentlemen.
