SOTD April 15, 2017 Blade: Chinese Schick Razor: Personna injector Brush: Surrey badger Lather: Soap Commander Passion Post: Witch hazel, Speick aftershave WTG, touch-up Nice and easy shave this morning with the Personna injector. It's nice and mild and as effective as the Schicks that I own. The Soap Commander performed terrifically as usual. Nice shave all around. Have a great Saturday!
Had a lot to read today. Been getting errors when trying to log in for whatever reason. But it works now, yay! Planning on having an aggressive Easter shave with the vc1 auto Strop and a modified GEM stainless. Super excited for it.
Sounds great. I will join in with a feather CS blade in a valet from a WWI set. Valet Easter is on!!!
Sun 16th April Omega 11137 boar Lea Classic Soap Brass General Feather Pro [ 1 ] Alum Rub/Rinse off Lea Classic A/S Lotion Not much sun yesterday, so did not wear a Cap whilst Time Keeping at T & F meeting. Mistake, It was windy which masked the Sun, rather Lobster Like Face today. Nearing the end of my loan of the Brass General. Switched to a Feather Pro, and am glad to have pursued a policy of using a more forgiving blade on my first uses of a new Razor. The Shave today was quite impressive in terms of finish attained, and was also smooth and comfortable, but due to inattention got a slight weeper. For me the Schick blade is a winner in this Razor, one more go with the Pro before passing it on.
I feel you on the sun burn. I am so pale I tend to glow in the dark almost. That means I burn on a cloudy day at times. It's great to hear how much you have enjoyed that razor.

New freakin Feather in the Autostrop was crap. Would not go anywhere but WTG without wringing of hands and gnashing of teeth. Sent it to the showers and finished the head shave with Shakes The Redeemer. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
SOTD April 16, 2017 Blade: Chinese Schick Razor: Schick G1 injector Brush: Surrey badger Lather: Country Club Cahaba Blues Post: Witch hazel, Fine American Blend aftershave WTG, touch-up HAPPY EASTER! Today is also my birthday! I went with some products that are favorites of mine. I love this soap and don't use it enough. The G1 was my first injector and it led my down a path of using all injectors and SEs. The badger brush is a re-knot but the handle was from my great uncle, and finally Fine American Blend is my favorite aftershave. Nice shave and looking forward to a busy day! Have a great day!
Razor: Supply Provision Custom 3 dot head Blade: Chick Brush Handle: B-400 The Brush by Tom Knot: APShaveCo Tuxedo Soap: B&M Leviathan Post Care: Thayers Witch Hazel Alum Osage Rub Aftershave: B&M Leviathan Wonderful Easter morning shave today. The scent of the Leviathan is one of my favorites and the performance is top shelf. Just 2 passes today for a DFS, BBS in most places but I didn't chase it. Have a great day folks!
Well I didn't have time this morning before the sunrise service for a photo. But valet Easter went great. Easy peasy 2 pass BBS shave Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
Well it's Feather SE bashing day. The shave today was number 3 on a carbon steel feather. I got through it with a decent shave. This will be the final shave on this blade though. None of the Feather blades seem to last very long. So todays Valet Easter shave.
