    Dove Men Face Wash
    TOBS Grapefruit Shaving Cream
    Jayaruh #1 Silver Tip
    Schick J2
    Personna SS
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayers Lemon WH
    Aqua Velva

    The TOBS Grapefruit Shaving Cream face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #1 Silver Tip Badger brush. Two passes with my Schick J2 razor and a Personna SS Injector blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, alum block, and a final cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayers Lemon WH and then Aqua Velva after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Razor: Valet Auto Strop Model "C"- 1935-40/ Gillette 1958 TV Special(2) Feather blade)
    Blade: Valet New Process (2)
    Brush: Frendrihen Silver Tip Badger Faux Horn Handle 22/49
    Soap: Knock Out Shave Cool Blue
    A/S: Pinaud Musk
    Day 9
    First time using a vintage strop, that is the original strop. It sure helped a lot to sharpen the vintage Valet New Process Blade. 2 Passes with the Valet and a cleanup with the Gillette. DFS this evening. The KnockOut Shave soap being a very good soap, they also leave enough room at the top of the container to allow you to whip up GREAT lather and not get it all over the counter top.:happy096:

    Old Spice Cologne

    Please, please, please guys - after tomorrow I promise to use something else besides a Glacial soap, but for Thursday I need that freeze to be happy because it's still quite warm here. The Obsidian soap is just the ticket for a splendid and bone-chilling shave. It gives such superb lather, I'm in love with the black liquorice scent, and there's two, perhaps even three boatloads of menthol in it. The matching balm is also packed to the brim with that same scent and frigid sensation. I love the Penguin also for its nice scent, and it delivers a damned cold smack! ;) :D

    I hadn't had enough coffee this morning. The strop is Horse leather and linen, and I did 20 laps on each before the shave, and 10 laps on each after the shave.

    Great vintage products. I inadvertently ruined my NOS Fuller amber brush while trying to pull the original nylon knot.

    Ouch! I would have pulled the knot too. This one is going strong and has good backbone. I love all this vintage stuff!
