    Star 3 piece razor
    Treet Silver blade
    RazoRock Synthetic brush
    Williams SS (vintage)
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Pinaud Clubman A/S

    The Star/Treet combo worked very well and I'm feeling fine. Only get 2 shaves out of a Treet Silver blade but those 2 are very nice. And how could you beat vintage Williams SS? You can't obviously so a great lather was had also. Now go enjoy you day folks.

    My first shave with a Super 84 and it shaves great. I put it on 7 like I do with my other Gillette Adjustables and the Persona Platinum sliced through the stubble like it was not there. It was helped by lathering with Williams Tonsorial. Have a blessed day gentlemen. [​IMG]

    That is what I was wondering since I had never heard of Mike offering this scent combination. :)

    100_3794.JPG 6/7/17 Wednesday

    Razor: Perdonna Flex Head
    Blade: Gillette Twinjector (?)
    Pre Shave: Hibco Nag Ghampa
    Lather: Proraso Green
    AS: Aqua Musk/ Afta
    Brush: VDH Badger

    A 2 pass shave, WTG/ATG with an extensive clean-up. Both passes were nice and smooth. I had to use dabs of lather here and there, but were as smooth as the rest. Can`t complain with a BBS shave. Happy Camper wishing great shaves for all. God Bless.

    More Frankenrazoring, Pearl baseplate, R41 cap. Two pass BBS, still more aggressive than the R41 but perhaps a bit smoother than with the Mastiff cap, tough call.[​IMG]

    Gotta post now for tomorrow,

    Thursday:

    Super Speed Rapira day 4
    Stirling Gin and Tonic on the Rocks SS
    Nip Man AS Balm

    Although I haven't yet smelled or even picked up this new soap I have full confidence that it'll be fabulous. This Nip Man balm certainly is and so is the Amici!

    Good shave today, but I need to remember to go easier on my neck. The GSB performed better today after a degunking last night with some 91% Isopropyl alcohol.

    I expect to pick up an Aqua Velva for the summer heat....I sure do hope it'll say "100th Anniversary" on it.

    I smelled the Gin and Tonic on the Rocks soap and I think it has a beautiful scent. I'd say it's very summery and I can't wait to try it tomorrow. My wife even says she likes it - hey, it's a winner both ways!

    Thursday's Shave
    zcws.gif

    Nivea Men Face Wash
    Williams Shaving Soap
    Jayaruh #182
    Gillette Super 84
    New Improved
    Rockwell Swedish Stainless
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Florida Water AS

    The Williams Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #182 Synthetic brush. I did the first pass with the Gillette Super 84 razor and Rockwell Swedish Stainless blade and second/clean up pass with New Improved, and I ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Florida Water AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
