Arko Adjustable April

April 19

Razor - Qshave (Futur clone) (6)
Blade - (3)
Soap - Arko
Brush - 30 DC LE
Post - Alum

Third shave for the Qshave and Sharp Star, and the 19th in a row for Arko so far this month. The 30DC brush made it simple and fast and the lather was luxurious. I really do like Arko - and 19 days in a row doesn't bother me. Much. Yeah, I'm a bit bored but it works like a charm and I have no complaints, so a month celebrating its history and simplicity is a small price to pay.

Anywho - two passes and touch ups and I do believe the baby is in the house. No issues or complaints so we'll just say it's been a fun and successful month so far with all of my DE adjustables. Tomorrow I'll break out the Schick Type M and give it a few days on maximum setting. Should be fun and some great shaves!

Hope you have a great holiday weekend planned!

Saturday Straights' Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Amalfi Basil Lemon
Jayaruh #331 Boar
Lee Mfg. 5/8
CWR
Pinaud Vanilla

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Amalfi Basil Lemon Shave Soap face lathered well with Jayaruh #331 Boar brush. I did two passes with the Lee Mfg. 5/8 razor and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Pinaud Vanilla AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
