Why didn't you guys told me that the Gillete Silver Blue blades were this good?! I think that they dethroned Feathers for me. Just need to test them with different razors to see how they behave in different combos, but for now? Top tier.

Thursday's Shave Plan:

prep-Nivea 4 Men Bodywash(Platinum Protect)
shave-Fields&Streams Soap by Local Gent Shaving Co.
brush-"lil brudder" by Stirling
razor-Sensor Deuce Pivot + DisposeABLE by Gillette

DE89/Custom Heavy Handle Razor
Treet Silver Carbon Blade
Omega/NY Yankees Boar Brush
WSP Fougere Noir Soap
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Aqua Velva Musk After Shave

Second use of the Treet Silver blade and it performed very well. Two passes with some touch up for a very smooth and comfortable BBS shave.

Early morning shave, gorgeous sunrise. A quick 2 pass shave, not much stubble to be honest. Pulled out a couple RR products that have been dormant in the shave den for a bit. A smooth, clean and refreshing shave today. All components performed flawlessly. Have a great day and shaves Gents....

LAST 3 SHAVES


Prep: Gustafsons Woodlands
Razor: Gillette Tech/ Somerset
Blade: Big Ben
Soap: Grandstaff Soap Co. Spicy Vetiver
Post: Shannons Haymarket Vetiver A/S


It's always a pleasure to use this fine soap, the scents are unique and lather quality is excellent. I would put this stuff up there with Ballenclaugh as being one of my favorite soaps. Anyways, ended up with a clean smooth shave.

TOBACCO TUESDAY



Prep: Taconic bay rum mentholated
Razor: Ming Shi Futur clone
Blade: Big Ben
Soap: Ballenclaugh Honey Tobacco
Post: Van Yulay Tobacco balm


Excellent shave yesterday morning. Love the lather quality and scents of Ballenclaugh, this one is not a typical tobacco scent, it has a earthy "hay" type of note to it.



Prep: Musgo Real Oakmoss
Razor: Ming Shi Futur clone
Blade: Big Ben
Soap: Labelle Forest Moss
Post: Pinaud Vanilla (mentholated)


Whipped up a nice lather this morning with the Labelle soap. The blade is starting to show signs of age, so not the best shave but acceptable. Finished off with a splash of Vanilla Clubman. Hope everyone had a wonderful shave!

Thursday's Shave


Nivea Men Face Wash
VDH Deluxe Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #188
Gillette Tech
Personna Super
CWR, Asma Alum Block
Thayer's Lemon WH
Lucky Tiger

The VDH Deluxe Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #188 synthetic brush. I did the two passes with the Gillette Tech razor and Personna Super blade and 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 Lucky Tiger AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

It's a vintage Barbasol Floating Head

A work of art Guy. Excellent photo my friend.

More adventures in Frankenrazoring. SABI cap on the R41 baseplate. Weird shave, the cap really limited cutting angle while increasing aggression where effective. Not a keeper, BBS but not a real standout in the comfort department.
