Cool photo, love your colors. I got 6 great shaves and 1 sorta ok shave from the only twin blade Ive tried. I had it loaded in my Schick type D. I removed and reloaded the blade after the sixth shave and may have dulled it during the process. Ive only got one other twin blade and have been trying what razor to try it in.
Thanks Douglas. Not sure if you've been following but the Canadian Bunny's next stop is in Ontario....
Puma Vintage Williams Soap Crabtree and Evelyn Vintage Brush-silvertip My barber, Frank, generously gave me this razor which he coined his "work horse." He brought it here from Italy in the 1950's and used it on my neck going back to when I was 8 years old. Great grandpa shave!
They were nickel plated and this one was in excellent condition and didn't need a replate but I wanted Rhodium so I sent it to Razor Emporium and they did an excellent job.
March 2,2016 Razor: Schich J1 (5) Braush: VDH Badger Cream/Soap: Italian Barber Pre Shave Oil: Homemade AS: Dove. men+ Care News Paper: Medford Mail Tribune Dec. 9/1943 This morning i managed a fine, 2 pass shave resulting in a BBS. The 1st pass ATG, which was almost like a speed shave, really easy and smooth. Now i do not shave ATG on my upper lip or the concave area just above my chin. It`s just too difficult without slashing myself like "Jack The Ripper", so i make slant moves in those areas. The 2nd pass WTG/XTG was smooth and easy. You are reading the words of a really happy camper. I guess that`s what counts the most. God Bless. Bill
SHAVE OF THE DAY Prep: Musgo Real classic Razor: Maggard MR 18 Blade: Persona Lab Blue (2nd shave) Brush: RazoRock plissoft Soap: I Coloniali Aftershave: Folsom & CO Shady Past 2 pass shave today. The I Cononali soap is wonderful, nice menthol, spicy scent, and one of the most protective lather you could ask for. BBS finish, still a little redness, but not a grain of stubble left. Finished off with Shady Past. Hope everyone has a great shave!
