Thurday and Friday Night - I used the aluminum RazoRock HAWK V2, but this time I used new aquired Blades - the FEATHER Super PRO - wich are more agressive - I found the shaves with the Proline way to mild on the HAWK, but with the Feather Super PRO - it was a much better shave!! on par with the General loaded with a proline->

Tue 28th Aug RazoRock Syn 22mm Speick Active ER " Streamline" Gem S/S [ 1 ] Pitralon Original After 5 days of good shaves with a modded AT Se-G, I thought I would Vintage. I took out one of my favourites a "Streamline", a Razor which I took a shine to in my early Shaving Days. Compared with the ATT very easy to load. It is one of those Razors that does not give problems with a fresh blade. Without problems I had a super Shave , so easy to get really close all round Shave probably in less time than with the ATT as it is a bit more aggressive.Probably will reload the ATT SE-G so as to do comparison Shaves with the "Streamline "

Wed 29th Aug Omega 11126 Speick Active ATT SE-G , modified base plate Gem S/S [ 1 ] Myrsol Antesol A/S Lotion After an excellent Shave yesterday with a Streamline, I decide to use the ATT with a fresh blade.I used the same soap and had a really smooth and comfortable Shave. The quality of the finished Shave was similar that of yesterday, but might have taken a bit longer as the ATT is less aggressive than the Streamline.

Small trip back in time, with new, but antique equipment: - Centenarians razor and blade (Louis Gastal - Years 1900 to 1920) * - Blade prepared with Magnus automatic sharpener (Kindal / CV Heljestrand - 1930s to 1950s). * Blade restored by an expert in the restoration of straight razors.
