Ralph Lauren Safari~~Simpson~~Gillette/Polsilver
Another rock-hard soap, the Ralph Lauren Safari.
While I lightly bloomed it, I should have doused it.
Picked up plenty of soap, but I don't relish the thought of scrubbing my Simpson knots
to do so.
Also, when I first acquired this soap, my initial thought was this is an AoS sandalwood clone.
After using it a few times, that's not the case.
Indeed, from basenotes.net:

(these notes refer to the Safari cologne, but it's close enough)
I bowl-lathered the soap and as Tim has recently pointed out, it got a little fluffy.
Only through vigorous "slapping" whilst face-lathering, was I able to achieve my desired consistency.
The Polsilver blade in its second appearance, really mowed down the 24 hour stubble.
I admire the head of the Old Type, as it is quite easy to maneuver and has
no trouble reaching the nooks and crannies on my face.
The Safari AS had some not-so-subtle burn, but the scent is worth it.

The resin pour on that handle is amazing...I just don't have that kind of patience (or that many colours ).
Good that you got that shave in before the water pressure cratered. Hope the public works gets the problem solved quickly.
I find the CH2 knot often has lather flying...the price to pay for an outstanding load with a dense knot, I suppose.

Thank you Jason. The more I use the brush the more appreciate the effort that went into making it. The Simpson knot holds enough lather to throw a boat load around the room.

Lots of fabulous SOTD photos today. Great job fellas!

First use of a stainless GEM blade today. As mentioned yesterday, I’ve only ever used the carbon blades from CVS. The one selected today was the regular GEM-branded Stainless (Not the PTFE coated). First impression? Meh. Certainly not as smooth right outta da gate. I’ve read posts in the past where folks recommend palm stropping, or some other kinda witchcraft with the stainless GEM blades. So, before someone suggests that, the answer is a firm “NO!”. I put that in the same category of silliness as blade-flipping and blooming. There is no need to subject oneself to making something work when there’s zero reason to.

For the most part, I’m a believer in not only TTT (Technique Trumps Tools), but also a razor is a razor, and a blade is a blade. So long as everything is mechanically sound, you should be able to get a decent shave with any razor/blade combo. That doesn’t mean there won’t be favorites - either with razors or blades - or a certain combo. That’s part of the point (and fun) of sampler packs. Let’s see what we like before making a bulk purchase.

I’ll try another shave with it tomorrow. If there’s no improvement, it’ll get binned and something else will replace it.

Rant aside, the ending result was yet another Ridiculously Awesome Shave (RAS). I didn’t say the blade didn’t work, just that it wasn’t as smooth as a CVS carbon GEM. During the shave, a few “greed weepers” appeared during the ATG pass, however they were gone by the “close of business”.

The tub of Grooming Dept. “Soap” has reached the end. There’s a tiny scrap left. That’ll get move over to the tub of Grooming Dept. “Melody”. From what my uneducated olfactory senses tell me, it’s the same basic scent, with a few other scent notes added.

Using Jason’s @jtspartan creation (30DC LE brush) is always a pleasure, and it gets pulled into duty fairly often. Not only is it a stunning handle, the SynBad knot is delightful to face lather with. Whatta craftsman he is - and a fine gentleman (with good taste in CL aftershaves) too!

Speaking of aftershaves. Yesterday and today there was no use of post-shave products. Livin’ life on the edge, my friends.

Enough yammering from me. Have a wonderful day, guys! Hope you enjoy!

Wonderful shave, picture and report, Bruce!
I admit to palm stropping my Gem PTFE blades per @clint64 advice. Not uncommon to have a rough side that a quick palm strop straightens out. My first shave with my Sabre L2 resulted in three weepers in just the first two strokes. Issue resolved since taking Clints advice.

Apparently I am an emperor who needs some secretarial help, as my picture keeps posting sideways and it’s beneath me to find out the details of how to correct it. You know; cause I’m busy doing emperor stuff. Anyhoo,, the Saposino Verisino is Italian and overpriced, the aristocrat is gold, and the gel tip badger in spalted maple is one of my favorites. Despite the fact that the guy on the front of the Fine Platinum spritzer looks more like a vacuum salesman from the 50s than part of the emperor’s crew, the scent is one that any emperor would be proud to wear.

Also while I did face lather today, please note the @jtspartan wash basin available for bowl lathering later in the month. Normally I would have one of the vestal virgins whip up the lather for me, but they’re busy peeling grapes today, so I’m roughing it.

SOTD TUESDAY, JULY 1, 2020

My first shave for July also featured my first outing with the Feather SS Barber's razor. Both the Feather SS and DX models use AC blades. For todays shave I loaded a Feather Super blade which I also use in my AC safety razors. The weight and heft differ from the Dovo as does the seeming cutting power. I found the Feather razor to be much sharper than the Dovo. What I also really like about these two SS razors my son gifted me is that there is none of the stropping/honing type maintenance required. All I need do is drop in a fresh blade and I'm off to the races for at least five to seven shaves. So it is in essence, a no-comb (either solid or open) blade replaceable straight razor. Now the Kamisori SS that was part of the package is going up on the shelf for now. According to my son, it's the same blade holder attached to a straight handle. When he upgraded it was to the DX Kamisori. That is his preferred straight razor. I may give it a go later this month, but for now I'll be shaving my Mug with both the Feather and the Dovo. For the dome shave I have returned to my trusty Schick Krona, although the model I shaved with for 50 years wasn't the Gold Centennial Edition razor I shaved with today. I selected one of my vanishing Sharp Stars for the Krona.

The theme at TSD this month is "Shave like an Emperor". In the spirit of Imperial Shaving I'll be limiting my shave soaps (MWF, Nuavia Pannacrema Blu, and Haslinger Schafmilch) to areas formerly occupied by the Roman Empire (England, Italy, and Gaul). My justification for continuing to use my beloved Nancy Boy Shave Cream is that it's just the best shave cream on the planet and thus qualifies for the Imperial label. The brush selected, my Omega Pro48 Boar is of Italian manufacture and thus qualifies as well, besides being my favorite Boar brush. Given that this was my first run with the new-to-me Feather SS razor, I debated whether I should limit its use to a single WTG pass. It did not feel like the Dovo, but it did shave beautifully. So after that first pass I began my second ATG pass and experienced a very minor set-down error as I began my non-dominant right cheek. Since it was minor I finished the pass which resulted in a thin stream of blood trailing down the cheek. Of course, this was when dear SWMBO came breezing in, took one look at me, and sweetly inquired why a tremor-ridden person would purposely choose to shave with a non-safety razor? I just smiled and winked at her. Her response was one we're probably all familiar with, "MEN!!!" I settled for a very close DFS. Ce qui sera sera!

Shaving the noggin with the Gold Centennial Krona was like putting on an extremely comfortable pair of old shoes! It just felt right! I guess it should after 50 years of Schick Krona shaving. My body went into automatic mode. After whipping up a thick, slick Nancy Boy lather and applying it to the dome, I had at it. The shave felt surprisingly good. I remember thinking that I never was able to get as close a shave as I do now with my other razors. I don't believe it's this particular NOS model. It launched into its own version of the 'buttering toast' song as it sheared away my stubble. In fact that first pass was remarkably close. I guess I may not have focused on my technique the way I do nowadays. In those pre-retirement days I was generally prepping for a meeting or looking to complete what I then considered a daily, not-so-pleasant maintenance task. In any case, that first WTG pass pretty much obliterated yesterday's stubble. The second ATG pass consisted of nothing more than some selected buffing. As I was shaving with it I was surprised at the closeness of that first pass. I guess I've just gotten better at this shaving business. To conclude, what I ended up with was a lovely, relaxed shave which reached the DFS+++ overall. I feel cool, clean, and my scalp is velveteen!

RAZOR: Feather SS Razor (Mug), Schick Centennial Gold Krona (Noggin)
BLADE: Feather Super AC (Mug), Sharp Star DE (Noggin)
PREP: Cold water rinse
BRUSH: Omega Pro48 Boar
CREAM: Nancy Boy Signature w/ 6 drops of M-Bomb
POSTSHAVE: Cold water wash with Glyce Glycerin soap followed by Humphreys Lilac WH and Royall Lyme AS. Finished with Nancy Boy Signature Scent Cooling After-Shave Gel.

Jeff, you have been astonishing me with your progress on edge forward shaving devices. I tip my hat.

Do not overlook Feather ProGuard blades. While I have not shaved with anything that severs facial hair as efficiently as a Professional Super, they are surprisingly pleasant.

I originally felt that a ProGuard was sissyfied. They are smooth shavers and will outlast the Supers. More forgiving and might avoid the rolling eye treatment too.

They are Max Headroom approved!

Had a great time meeting Joe C! We talked for 2 hrs at our favorite pizza/ restaurant, Carnival. He showed me his 2 Drew Dick razors and they were beauties. Of course, I had my Mad Max and included my near wedge Wosty, my Ace of Spades F. Herder and my Henckel's. The time just flew by! Here is a pic of 2 handsome clean-shaved guys. I would say we did the 30 DC proud! View attachment 229476 View attachment 229476

fine shave Bruce..

What are your shaves going to look like in July?

Nothing but the finest gear for my shaves.

Actually, I am a Barbarian, so I’ll shave with whatever I want!

Who was Julius Caesar, really?

Who made the salad?

I don’t answer polls, they’re all fixed.

I don’t recognize this thread, am I on the correct website?

We don’t need no stinking polls. (That’s for you, Paul)
