    Pretty self explanatory except schick is the I55 I have been having problems with i tried a diff blade and got a VCS with a single pass and the brush. Handle was given to me by a friend on Wed. Cleaned up stained and clear coated and put a kabuki knot in it. Used it for first time today.

  10. Thanks. And i was surprised by the brush. Its an old cleaning brush handle and had those long hard bristles but i saw its potential when he gave it to me. It works surprisingly well !! Just goes to show that fairly much anything can be re-purposed.
    Also its my first long handle brush so now im trying to figure out a stand for it....

    Recent Shaves just seem to get better, the Vitos worked so well with the Razor/Blade combo that the finish attained left my face feeling squeaky clean. On a good day like this the Claymore is as good as more high end Razors , perhaps a tad heavy but it works for me.

  17. GEMonday for myself and was looking through my racks of razors and I like my 1958-65 push button & it has not been used for a little while so that's the one for today. This is one of the best looking GEM razors when most of the gold is still adhered to razor IMO & is a good daily driver.
    Razor: GEM Bush button 1958-65
    Blade : GEM Personna SS PTFE (2)
    Soap : Razorock Lavender
    Brush : Omega boar brush- I still like to get it out once in a while so I can appreciate my other brushes and it does the job
    Preshave: wet the face, washed with glycerin soap and added some Aloe Vera gel
    Post shave: Alum block+ cold water rinse- not much for irritation=:)
    Post shave: Razorock blue barber + witch hazel + a little Nivea balm

    Smooth shave with a NOS blade - Schick Plus Platinum. I'm going to use this razor a few times this week to try and dial it in a little more.
