Williams Wednesday's Shave Clubman Classic Shave Cream Williams Mug Shave Soap Jayaruh #30 Schick Krona Astra SP CWR Clubman Pinaud AS My prep was just a cold water rinse. I used Clubman Classic Shave Cream as a pre-shave. It is an non-lathering SC, so I just applied a thin layer before face-lathering the Williams Mug Shave Soap with the Jayaruh #30 brush. I did two passes with the Schick Krona Razor with an Astra SP blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Clubman Pinaud AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Now that's very interesting, Bob....the Shave Soap says BULGARI while the A.S. says BVLGARI, but, same company, of course. (You may recall my BVLGARI post from a few months ago. Did they want it to be "fancier" on the A.S?)

8/8/2018 Wednesday Razor: Gillette SE Guard Cartridge (1) Lather: Cremo Shave Cream AS: Mennen `afta`/ Old Spice Original News paper Date: Nov. 3, 1943 One of the most efficient shaves that I can remember. Two passes, WTG/ATG with touch ups after each pass. As long as I`m getting such good shaves, BBS, from that little `Guard`, I`m going to stick with it. A 12 to 15 min. shave fits into my window of opportunity. (tremors). The Personna pivot does almost the same thing, but I have to use a lot more trappings that eat into my `window` time., and it bites a little. Someone explain to me why anyone with a steady hand would need a razor that pivots. Also, why would I need to find the correct angle with a pivot. I have 3 pivot razors that automatically `find` the correct angle and keeps it throughout the shave. The OneBlade Core and the Focus doesn`t do that, IMHO. Happy Camper here wishing the same for all, God Bless. Bill

The Pimento is the one for me, and if I buy a Benjamin's that will be the one. Happy Shaving one and all.
