Wednesday morning: Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed/Astra day 3 Lea Classic S/C Gold Bond Moisturizer F&C Black Powder A/S Splash What a fantastic cream this Lea Classic is - it smells wonderful, it's a pleasure to lather up with, and it has a very good cooling sensation with such a soothing post-shave sensation. It's a shame that the Black Powder aftershave is no longer available - ah well, c'est la vie!

Tonight's shave was with a freshly acquired, slightly restored, and hone razor. It's the maiden shave. I have a wonderfully smooth 1 Pass Shave, with this blade. when I rubbed my face, there was no need to go further. It was a DFS, with BBS in almost all areas. No touch-ups needed. I highly recommend one of these razors, if you have the opportunity to get one. Razor- Mayer & Grosh, Barbers Hollow Ground. Toledo Ohio. Brush- Vintage German "Oceans" Soap- ARKO/Avon Spicy Scented Aftershave- Yardley Gold
TOBACCO TUESDAY Prep: RazoRock Mister Joe Razor: Schick L Injector Blade: Ted Pella (1st shave) Brush: Maggard 24mm synthetic Soap: PAA Cavendish Post: Lucky Tiger, PAA Cavendish A/S, HEV Cognac & Cuban Cigars balm Have been recently experimenting with different razors, first time with this one. The handle is longer than my other injector so there was a bit of a learning curve. Had some redness but a clean shave anyways. Decided to throw on some balm as well to repair any damage that may have taken place. Hope everyone had a great shave!
3/7/17 SOTN 1. Hot shower 2. PAA cad pre shave soap 3. colgate lime shaving cream, can, discontinued. 4. schick injector type G 8 (brand new , still had blank blade) 5. schick injector platinum plus blade, 1st use.. wow.. first time using this vintage blade, sharper than a feather. 6..alum / thayers medicated / fine green.a.s.
Like you, I'm using a discontinued shaving cream-the Rise Super Foam(the 13 oz. white can). . They got rid of it about 6 months ago, and I still have 4 cans left from my order with them. Grandfathering is fun!!!
Just doing some rough math, If I used in a rotation of a couple of dozen soaps, I should finish it up in a little less than eight years.
