    Greetings,

    Last early morning face & head shave of February 2025.

    The reacquaintance to myself this month using a DE razor for my combined face & head shaves after my extended long run of using Cartridge razors has been wonderful with the King C. Gillette & Wilkinson Sword Premium TTO razor. Out of the two razors the WS TTO premium is the most efficient. However, I find the more the King C Gillette comfortable to use, especially for my head shaves...I will keep rotating both razors in future shaves.

    In my March focus I continue with another two razor focus using the Parker 24C open comb DE razor for my face shaves paired together with the Voskhod DE blades.

    For my head/dome Shaves, I'll be using the Parker InjRzr paired together Personna PTFE SS Injector blades.

    Finishing the shave off a with a few small dollops of Cien Cocoa Butter Body Lotion.

    My face & precious swede are feeling smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

    It’s a great razor, and I am improving my one-handed shaving skills. Left hand is only good for stretching the skin.

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    The steeper angle definitely makes the VDH work better. I experienced that this morning. Great point!

    Freedom February

    Razor - VDH TTO
    Blade - voskhod-teflon-coated.jpg (2)
    Soap - El Caballero
    Brush - West Coast Shaving Synthetic

    Modified the el-cheapo shave by changing to a synthetic brush, and returning to my effort to 3017 the El Caballero. That effort is paying dividends as the ring of death broke apart while loading the brush. A few more days and that soap will be in the history books in my shave den. The VDH and Voskhod did a great job again, as did the synthetic brush in getting a great lather. I got home late due to having a radiology appointment this morning so a quick two pass shave to a near perfect finish was welcomed. It's Tuesday! Enjoy!

    Awesome shave this morning. I was going to use another razor but I found myself picking this one up again. It is just an amazing and comfortable razor to use. Three very nice passes.

    Happy Tuesday everyone!
