    Greetings,

    It's been a while since my much loved vintage Gillette slim twist has made an appearance in one of my SOTD set up's this vintage razor gives an amazingly comfortably smooth shave each time i shave with it. I repeat myself by stating each time that i shave with this vintage lady it still amazes me that a 50 year + de razor can still perform with such smoothness...A enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups close comfortable shave with no errors to report...Finishing to the shave off with a small dollop of Aloe Vera Gel.

    My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.;)

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

    I have another busy day ahead of me during which I will be blinded by the sun.

    I doubt this repetitive gear deserves any comments....

    Beautiful, Matt, but how long did you have to wait for that snow to accumulate on your gear?

    Thank you! It didn't take much patience. We so rarely get snow, it's always a joy when we do.

    Thank you. I'm estimating it took about 15 minutes. I actually had to knock off some of the snow from the razor just so you could see it.

    Tabac Tuesday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Tabac Shave Soap
    Oscar11 Synthetic
    EndGem Speed Razor (first shave)
    Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Tabac ASB

    This is my first shave with the 3D Printed EndGem Speed Razor. The Tabac Shave Soap was applied with the Oscar11 Synthetic brush. One pass and touch ups with the EndGem Speed Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
