    Thursday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Col. Conk Lime Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #456
    Supply SE
    Supply Black Label Injector
    CWR
    Derby City Chop Shop Winter Reserve AS

    The Col. Conk Lime Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #456 Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Supply SE Razor and the Supply Black Label Injector blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Derby City Chop Shop Winter Reserve AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Razor
    : Razorock 316 SSP Game changer.84 with a RR Radio knob 316 handle. Mfg 2018> tame mid range. Excellent machining and finish QC. I enjoy a Kai SS extra wide blade in my RR GC.84 seems to work the best, I just like a little more blade feel over the years when shaving with my RR GC.84. Had a close comfortable stellar shave this morning.
    Blade : Kai SS(7) sharp and smooth with a excellent longevity. Top tier blade.
    Soap : Razorock XXX croap [​IMG], very nice clean scented cologne fragrance with excellent lather qualities.
    Brush : Yaqi "Lucky casino's" 26mm timber wolf knot. Excellent lather generator, luxury heavenly cloud like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + excellent lather painter.
    Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave : Razorock XXX splash [​IMG] with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : Dial 10 stellar.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my RR GC.84 with a Kai SS blade.(Don't get much better when shaving for myself.)

    I saw your razor a couple of times on youtube. It was passed around. It's a real high-end sports car. I was impressed. Thanks for a great post.
