  3. Thank you, Gary! I do like the Mamba quite a bit. It is smooth and effortless for me. Being SS, it makes for a great travel razor.

  7. Just the Basics June!!

    June 20

    Razor - Gillette Tech
    Blade [​IMG] (1)
    Soap - Tabac
    Brush - Wolf Whiskers Custom Silvertip
    Post - Alum

    Since I skipped Tabac Tuesday I'll just call it Tabac Thursday. Time to get basic. How about a Tech with a Derby blade.....basic enough? I know what you're thinking....where in the world did the Czar find a Derby blade?! I surprise myself at what I find lurking in my stash at times. I remember Derby being the blade everyone loved to trash talk about when I started down this path. Funny how time, experience and TECHNIQUE change things.

    The mild Tech and the not-so-sharp Derby - add three passes with the Tabac lather from the Silvertip badger and you get -------a very nice near-BBS finish. You also get quiet alum and a nice after shave feel. That's what basic shaving is all about.

    35 hours to breakfast for those of you coming to town!! Let's get it ON!!!

    Friday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Amalfi Basil Lemon
    Jayaruh #367 Badger/Boar
    AutoStrop B1
    Valet AutoStrop (10)
    CWR
    Pinaud Lilac Vegetal

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Vintage Life Amalfi Basil Lemon Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #367 Badger/Boar brush. I did two passes with the AutoStrop B1 razor with a Valet AutoStrop blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Pinaud Lilac Vegetal AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
