Friday Razor: The Holy Black w/ GSB (2) Brush: Vie Long Horse Hair Lather: Old Spice Original Post: Old Spice Great shave today, the old spice lather cream makes a great lather that is pretty slick. Only big issue it has is it's longevity. By my third pass it began to dissipate. Have a great day!
June 10/2016 Razor: Durham Dorset Blade: Durham Duplex (1) Soap: Italian Barber Brush: Same old horse with no name Pre Shave Oil: Homemade As: Nivea Balm/Brut Splash On Big mistake, I have tried several times to make it work. After 3 passes and some blow torch irritation, I finally arrived at a BBS (wonder of wonders). The careful strokes I took were painful from the pulling on the 1st pass. I finally found a decent angle, then it wasn`t so bad. The 2nd pass was somewhat like a normal shave. The 3rd pass was even easier, with a watery lather, it cleaned up very good. It seems that this razor really likes water. Acquiring blades is not only difficult, but expensive. I can`t find carpet blades to fit the Dorset. I used an original blade. So, this one goes back into the misc. drawer. It is difficult to believe I got a BBS, but I did (at a great deal of pain). I don`t think it was worth it. Best wishes to all. Bill

Razor: Gillette Super Speed TTO "Red" Flair Tip A3 1955 with the original case, blade pack with instructions. Brush: Wolf Whiskers DWW-3 "Burnt Oak Whiskey" 30mm x 52 TGN Silvertip Premium 2016 Mug: Old Spice 1985 Cobalt Blue Cream: Truefitt&Hill No 10 Blade: Feather (2) Post shave: Thayers Cucumber Witch Hazel with Aloe Vera, Jack Black, Pinaud Clubman Virgin Island Bay Rum Whipped up the Truefitt&Hill No 10 in a minute with this monster Silvertip. The Nice slick cushion and I really like the scent of the No 10. The heavy handle and head of the fat Tip gave me a nice smooth shave with no pressure with a Feather blade. WTG and XTG on my face and neck. Then gently ATG, very smooth. The Thayers Cucumber Witch Hazel with Aloe Vera felt good on my face and that natural scent was nice and fresh. After cleanup, I smoothed on some Jack Black, and then some Pinaud Clubman Virgin Island Bay Rum. Y'all have a good one!
Clubman Friday Schick Grip / Schick (4) RazoRock XXX Vie-Long Butterscotch Horse Hair Gentleman's Pride ASB Pinaud Clubman A great late shave today. I can get away with a late shave as I'm unemployed. The XXX is a great soap and the injector wiped away the whiskers along with the lather with ease. Have a blessed day gentlemen.
