    I posted this new to me oldie in "The Haul." A somewhat aggressive shaver for sure, but I think I'm going to like it. I may try a somewhat heavier handle next time. Happy shaves all!

  13. One of my favorites. It's a relatively hard sop that whips up a great long-lasting lather. And the scent is pleasant, but not overwhelming.

    First shave with this brush, after which it bloomed considerably, with minimal shedding.
    Eats a lot of soap but makes a great lather quickly. It’s definitely a keeper.

    Friday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    Palmolive Shave Cream
    Jayaruh #313
    Gem Contour
    CVS CS SE
    CWR
    Aqua Velva Musk

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Palmolive Shave Cream face lathered well with the Jayaruh #313 Badger Brush. I did two passes and a cleanup with the Gem Contour razor with a CVS CS SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Through The Fire Friday
    Speed kills. I should have tossed this blade yesterday, but I was in a hurry for no good reason. Not only did I use a blade past its prime, I went too fast over my neck, so a little irritated. Not too bad, though, because the lather was great and the splash is smooth.
