    Incredible shave, from a formerly "Plated Razor". I had a very smooth, 2 pass shave, that left me BDBS. This one was sharpened by @gssixgun , a while back, and it is still holding a great edge.

    Razor- "The Palmer #41" , Chicago. A hotel razor.
    Brush- Omega 10098, boar
    Soap- Arko/Avon Spicy scented
    Aftershave- Vintage Avon Spicy. Hitching Post decanter

    Razor - Gem Micromatic Clog-Pruf
    Blade - CVS Carbon SE
    Soap - Stirling Mountain Man
    Brush - The Canuck
    Post - Alum

    All righty then. Let's shave, shall we? Took last night off to let the minor cut heal a bit more before pulling out the next razor in line. It's the Micromatic Clog-Pruf. Close relative to the OCMM. The difference? No open comb. Duh. I have generally had more issues with this one cutting me than the OC version, hence the extra caution about the cut issue. I chose Stirling Mountain Man with the Canuck brush for a great scented and quality lather, of course. This razor, in spite of the closed comb, feels more "bladey" to me and, in fact, it did reopen the cut just a bit even with the extra caution I used. Oh well. It's SE shaving. It's a bit more bold. No other issues as three passes went by smoothly and noisily with the fresh carbon blade. Alum was mostly quiet. A tingle here and there but nothing to get upset about. All in all a great shave and a great near-BBS finish. I can't complain.

    We have ten days left in September. Yeah, it's gone by that quick. Enjoy your weekend!!

    Last use of this blade (#3), so a new razor will be used with a new blade for tomorrows shave (I like to keep my razor/blade combo going for the duration of the blade tbh).

    Messed around with the lather and bowl this morning. I had surprising results (to me) with the T&H. I kept at it and just poured the water in whilst lathering. I got a very, very, thick and slick lather which was a joy to use. I am going to to another focus soon and i think its going to be one focusing on my lathering, be it face or bowl. It is a hole in my technique atm.

    I let my concentration slip and cut my scar badly. A few minutes with the styptic pencil was needed to stop the bleeding. Ouch.
    Great shave though. BBS and more!
    Have a great weekend!
