    Thursday's Shave
    [​IMG]

    Proraso Pre Shave
    Colgate Shaving Mug Soap
    Semogue SOC
    GEM Frankenskeene
    Sha-Ve-Zee SE
    CWR
    Thayers Peach WH
    Florida Water

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Colgate Shaving Mug Soap face-lathered well with the Semogue SOC brush. I did two passes with the GEM Frankenskeene Razor with a Sha-Ve-Zee SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Peach WH and then Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

  4. Picked up this Valet Auto Strop utility knife/cigar cutter yesterday at a junk store. I have a few others that are in better shape. This one will be my EDC. That is a vintage Auto Strop blade.

  5. Thur 21st June

    Omega 10005
    Faena Sandalwood
    Mongoose B3
    Schick Proline [ 3 ]
    Jaguar Prestige A/S Lotion

    Have been having a good spate of great Shaves, with varied Razor types not sticking to a standard Rotation.
    Knew I was on to a good one as the rarely used Faena produced such a rich cream lather, it was most unlikely that any Razor/ Blade combination could do anything but deliver a good Shave.

    As I am long retired I have no need to rush so am pleased to report that not only was the Shave trouble free, but
    up there with the real good ones too.

    My first use of a Barrister & Mann soap and I'm very impressed indeed. It's easy to dial in, plenty of cushion, plenty of slickness and v.good post shave.
    I like the scent too, when lathered the rosemary becomes more evident and I've now got a hankering for loin chops.
    Using DEs for five days in a row is probably four days too many but it makes me appreciate a fine SE even more.
    My skin's, soft, smooth, and smelling medicinal.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

    Good morning friends. Fantastic three pass shave today with the Schick N1 fitted with a twin blade. Marvelous lather from the Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements 1K shave soap. I am smooth and refreshed. Enjoy your day friends. ☺️

  14. Fri 22nd June

    Omega 11126
    Speick Active soap
    Schick E2-Camada
    Schick Proline [ 8 ]
    Pitralon Original A/S Lotion

    Though aggressive this E2 is a lot milder than its American cousin. I found that today I had to work quite hard to get an ultra close Shave, probably time for a blade change. At least I did not have any mishap/or post Shave
    problems.

    Proraso Pre Shave
    Colgate Shaving Mug Soap
    Semogue SOC
    TomsNoName SE Razor
    GEM CS SE
    CWR
    Thayers Peach WH
    Florida Water

    This was my first shave with the TNNSER, so I made a video to document it. It was an excellent shave. This razor by Tom White is a real winner.

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Colgate Shaving Mug Soap face-lathered well with the Semogue SOC brush. I did two passes with TomsNoName SE Razor with a GEM CS SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Peach WH and then Florida Water.

    Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap

    Razor: Schick G4 '66' injector
    Brush: Omega 10049 boar
    Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat

    Good shave overall, but a couple of weepers from this vintage blade. The 66 can sneak up on you. But pretty good overall. Have a great day!
