SOTD September 16, 2016 Blade: Chinese Schick Razor: Schick G1 injector Brush: Omega 10049 boar Lather: Mitchell's Wool Fat Post: Witch hazel splash, Fine American Blend, Nivea sensitive balm WTG, touch-up Fat Friday! I look forward to Mitchell's on Fridays as a great way to close out the work week. It never fails for terrific lather. Went back to the G1 after a week of shaves with the MMOC. The G1 is smoother and more efficient for me. No nicks, weepers, redness, or other face drama this morning, which is nice! Fine American Blend closed out the deal for a nice shave. Have a great day!
@Douglas Carey introduced me to Route 66 and I have really enjoyed using the Route 66 soaps. I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

Shave 19. First shave with this 5/8 JR Torrey that landed in my mailbox earlier this week. Another good shave but I'll be going back to my Otto Busch Weltmeister for consistency of practice as I continue to climb the learning curve of straights.
