March 21/2017 Tue. Razor; Personna Flex Head Injector Blade: Gillette Twinjector (1) Cream: La Toja Pre Shave: DIY Brush: VDH Badger AS: Old Spice Oh God, I love wet shaving. What a wonderful experience. A 2 pass, WTG/ATG and clean-up. The flex movement with the twin Gillette blade has to be one of the 7 wonders of the world. One heck of a Happy Camper here wishing for great shaves for all the generous members of TSD. God Bless Bill
Gem Featherweight razor Gem Stainless blade VDH/TGN Silver Tip brush Palmolive Menthol SC Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe M&L Florida Water Cologne w/added menthol Well, I thought I was being a glutton for punishment since Gem Stainless blades have always been uncomfortable & ineffective for me. I thought "What the heck" and put one in my Featherweight. Never had to good of shaves with the Featherweight before either but this combo worked surprisingly well and was smooth, comfortable and effective. Nice 2 pass w/touchup shave and I'm ready to go. Now go enjoy your day folks.
21 March 2017 Just about out of the Figaro. Maybe another shave or two at the most left. Really a nice scented, good lathering Italian soap. Couple more splashes left in the Clubman, but I have a bottle in reserve.

Nice setup. The matching brush and razor are a great set and the razor handle is the same one I originally wanted for my slant but couldn't make it happen and got the fantastic deal on the awesome Sterling Soaps Slant instead.
Today's shave was very nice This 8/8 near wedge is the heaviest razor I own. It has a very nice edge and just wiped the whiskers off. Im going to like this one. SOTD Route 66 Sweeney Todd B-400 Brush by Tom Koraat Razor Thayers WH Pinaud Special Reserve AS Have a great day!

The shave cream is incredible. The lather just kept going and going. Captain's Choice has really got something here. Be smooth and shave it up, everyone! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
That is a good looking handle for the Stahly head. Decent priced for being SS, too. How's the balance VS. a stock Stahly handle?
