When the farm was in activity, it was the barn.
When I bought my slice of farm, I did not know that part was on sale as well, otherwise I'd have chosen that!
Too late to regret...

2021: A Shave Odyssey!

Thank you Sir, Tonsorial Williams is the same as the vintage but sold to barbers in rolls of 10. You'll still see a roll pop up once in a Blue Moon. This is my last Tonsorial I have, then on to standard vintage which again is the same with a different stamp in the soaps. I mushed it into a wood bowl.

Looks great!

Just beautiful Sergio.

GEMonday, Jan 11th 2021. Another great razor from American Safety Razor Corp family of shaving products.

Razor: Gem Open Comb 1912- MFG 1912-15- excellent razor and this is the razor that really propelled the company into a legendry umbrella of shaving company's IMO, it is not a aggressive OC razor but in the mid range but more on the smooth side IMO.
Blade: Gem Personna SS PTFE (9) excellent blade, very sharp, excellent longevity, smooths out nicely & predictable.
Soap: Razorock Don Marco- what a nice citrus scent, excellent lather qualities. It will cheer up a person when it is -20C outside IMO .
Brush: Yaqi Chianti's 24mm knot- excellent lather creator, heavenly cloud like soft tips with some backbone for folks who like a gentle scrub IMO.
Pre shave: wash whole face with Razorock XXX hand cube soap + a dollop of Aloe Vera Gel on cleaned beard area.
Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave: Pinaud Clubman with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.
Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers = excellent shave with my Gem OC 1912 + Gem Coated SS blade.


Have some great shaves! Stay & think safe in these times!

Fresh blade, good suds and the Twig gave a flawless shave. This razor is no slouch and with a different blade installed, I believe it will make a good razor even better. Going to try a couple of my favorites in the Twig to see if my presumed theory is correct. A wonderful evening and shaves to all....​

Decent razor, efficient but not overly aggressive. Close but no BBS cigar for me.
