    Glad to hear the Sheraton is a nice shave. The mailman just delivered this one plated in rhodium. Can't wait to try it out!

    October 6

    Razor: 20's Old Type
    Blade: 7 O'Clock SharpEdge (2), no shim

    Running a bit late, so just a quick one-pass WTG. Ended up with a nice CCS with minimal irritation.

    That looks stunning. If it shaves half as good as looks, you'll be in for a real treat. :happy088:

    OC October - This month I'll introduce myself to my OCs.
    Gillette New LC
    Gillette Goodwill
    Standard Safety Razor OC
    Schick Type C1 OC

    Hot Shower, Morning Shave
    Soap: Cella
    Brush: Omega Pro 48
    Razor: Gillette New LC
    Blade: Voskhod (1)
    TSD Witch Hazel
    Aftershave: Proraso Green
    ImageUploadedByTapatalk1444151743.923874.jpg
    Last week I used a 7 O'Clock Blue and had 5 great shaves in the New LC. So with my last remaining shaves before switching to the next razor, I will try out another blade in it.

    Two-pass shave (XTG, ATG).

    1st pass - Very smooth, good feedback, really nice reduction.
    2nd pass - Very efficient, more feedback, few repeat strokes.

    A completely satisfying shave! Smooth and clean face all the way around, with no irritation. Excellent first shave with this blade!

    Autumn is my favorite season of the year.
    Among the many reasons - the Fall Classic!
    Play ball!

    Thanks guys. I may have to adjust my Old Type focus for October. I'm not sure I can wait until November.

    Brought out the OCMM again today. I don't think any razor gives a closer shave than my OCMM. Still working on the user-friendly aspect. No blood letting but the alum block let me know that I was pushing the limit. Baby smooth for another day! :cool:

    Love the looks of that razor. Me thinks I'm gonna be developing a RAD for open combs.
