Sun 23rd Sept RazoRock Plissoft 22mm Speick Active Ever Ready Natural Angle HFT Gem S/S [ 2 ] Pitralon Original A/S Lotion Up a bit late this morning and due out early, so chose the British Version of the G Bar for a quick Shave. I know that it is on the light side for me to get an ultra close Shave without a lot of work. However it Shaves very smoothly and delivered a more than satisfactory finish for officiating at Trackside. After driving to the venue it was decided that due to incessant heavy rain it was unsafe to continue, so the event was cancelled. I was quite pleased as I got soaked through on Saturday,and the thought of 6/7 hours in the rain was not appealing.
Pre: Warm water splash Brush: Steven_jagger Zebrano 24mm ST Soap: Cella Razor: E-R 1924 Blade: Gem Blue Star CS Post: Warm then cold water rinse, Cella ASL A great way to kick off the week and a reminder that great soaps and splashes can be had cheaply. Happy Shaving one and all.

Menthol Monday's Shave Cold Water Wash Fine Snake Bite Jayaruh #319 Bunny V3 Injector Schick Proline B20 Blade CWR Osage Rub My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Fine Snake Bite Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #319 brush. Using the NOTSO comb, I did two passes with the Bunny V3 Injector Razor with a Schick Proline B20 Blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
Something that was brought up across the street. I kinda hate to get behind Toby's idea....but it makes sense. Why do we say open comb Micro Matic?? Why not just micro matic? That was the only MM until the Clog Pruf came along. Then the Flying Wing. Would it not be proper to just say MM for the original open comb model?
I suppose it's like film franchises, we say Godfather 1, when it was just The Godfather. Unnecessary clarification but does no harm imo. Why do some (e.g me) say MMOC and others say OCMM?
Mon 24th Sept Omega 11126 boar P & B Spitfire Gem OCMM - brass Schick Proline [ 3 ] Tuff Red A/S Lotion After using my ER Se razors for a week plus, decided to try out some Gem ones. I picked out the OCMM, which still had a Schick Proline in it, from when I had a couple of experimental Shaves. I recall that these Shaves were good so kept the Proline in the Razor. The Shave was very smooth and the combo was very forgiving, so that a quick shave was implemented ver y easily.The quality of the finished Shave was very good, IMHO superior to those I get with my V1 Supply SE fitted with a V2 No 3 plate. I do not know how it would compare to a Minigoose, but it is a lot cheaper and this one being brass should last a lifetime.
