    MMMonday Jan-13th-2020 - It is sure nice when a prior shave was so so and you pick up a Micromatic open comb and does the job with excellent results. I did a 3 pass shave this morning with the MMOC and it was stellar, I have gone from a 2 pass to a 3 pass lately with less pressure and getting lots of good shaves.(Thanks to my Oneblade Core because you need 3 passes to get a excellent shave!)

    Razor: Gem MMOC - MFG 1932-41 variant MMOC I used- button less MFG 1930-32 variant usually just brass.
    Blade : Gem Pesonna SS PTFE (8)
    Soap : Razorock Santa Marie del Flore "Firenze"- Excellent lather properties & scent.
    Preshave: Brush wash my face with CeraVe hand bar soap + a dollop of clear Alloe Vera gel on beard area.
    Brush : Yaqi Cashmire 24 mm synthetic with black marble handle.
    Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 3. Even when it's -34 C or -30 F today
    Post shave: Alum + cold water rinse.
    Post shave : Avon "True Gent" with witch Hazel+ Avon "True Gent" aftershave balm.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBs + alum indicated no irritation + no weepers = [​IMG]

    Pre: Proraso white
    Brush: Yaqi Moka two band 26mm
    Soap: Tabac Original
    Razor: Chinese clone Feather Artist Club SS
    Blade: Feather Professional
    Post: witch hazel & Tabac Original balm
    I was eager to shave again, so I waited one day less than usual. Hence the Proraso preshave. I am really enjoying this Feather clone.

    Thanks Paul, fortunately we don't frequent the downtown area late at night/early in the morning. However the incident started only a few block away from where my wife and I work.
