    Thanks! How could any serious shave den be without at least one bottle of Brut?

    The old gillette 7 oclock is still going strong in the fatip piccolo, so in the meantime i thought id give the sharpest DE blade known to man a try in the aristocrat. I was really impressed with how easily the feather gave a baby smooth shave in the aristocrat, i was also impressed with how slick that col conk shave soap Jimbob sent is, so with this shave i didnt know which performed better!
    Thanks a lot to Jimmy for the feathers and soap!

    Razor: 1948 gillette aristocrat barber-pole
    Blade: feather hi-stainless(1)
    Soap: col conk lime
    Aftershave: Brut by faberge

    Techmatic Tuesday's Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Green Mountain Lime Vetiver Shaving Soap
    B-400 by Tom
    Gillette Techmatic
    Techmatic Band
    CWR
    Granddad's Blend AS

    Today, I revisited the famous Gillette Techmatic band razor. I first used one of these back in the 60s. I was not impressed with it then. However, today's shave was as good as it gets. Technique trumps tools. In the 60s, I had the tools but not the technique. There you go... I really did not know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised with this shave.

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Green Mountain Lime Vetiver Shaving Soap face lathered well with B-400 by Tom brush. I did two passes with the Gillette Techmatic razor with a Techmatic Band SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Granddad's Blend AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
