Greetings,

A new shave set up to start the weekend...Last week i used the Wilkinson Sword Premium (TTO) razor with all my shaves...This week i will be using the WS Classic...The WS classic is a mild razor which is a good every day/newbie shaver. The two piece design of the razor makes it easy to load the blade, covering the full blade with no exposure of the blade edges...The Blade gap is considerably smaller than the newer WS premium TTO...The razor/blade combo perform well together giving a comfortable shave if you rinse the razor more regularly to clear the blade gap due to it's small blade gap.

A enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups close comfortable acceptable shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with some generous squirts of Mario Falcone EDT to the pulse points.

My face is feeling smooth & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.

Saturday Straights' Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Jeeves of Hudson Street Conservatory
Jayaruh #371 Badger/Boar
Kamisori
Feather Professional
CWR
Lustray Spice After Shave

The Jeeves of Hudson Street Conservatory Shave Stick was lathered well with the Jayaruh #371 Badger/Boar brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Kamisori shavette with a Feather Professional blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
Full disclosure: I was a little cavalier during the second pass, and the Kamisori grabbed me.

SOTD February 13th - The Williams Meet -

William Elliot 85
Cowhide Strop
Semogue OC Premium Boar
Williams Mug Shave Soap
Initech Mug
Aqua Velva


I soaked the puck in steaming hot water with the brush in the corporate mug for 20 plus minutes, then added two drops of glycerin on the puck after draining the water.

Heavy load of the brush produced a good lather. The lather, as expected dissipated quickly and reapplications were the mainstay of the shave but it really produced a completely smooth BBS shave.
