    I've always admired the quality of shave I get with the little lather catcher and today was not disappointed.

    Simpson Chubby 1 - Maggards ED2band
    Williams Mug Soap
    ER 1912- Bathroom Set
    Gem S/S [ 1 ]
    Williams Aqua Velva A/S Lotion

    Used today what is the latest ER ever Made in England. It was made in 1951 and features a light modern looking aluminium handle, it is called The Bathroom Set. The Head apparently was made to accommodate a modern Gem Blade, so it shaves without the Rasp associated with a 1912. The Shave was really smooth and without any problems I got a rather "Face Stroking" finish.

    Williams Wednesday's Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Soap
    The Brush B-3 by Tom
    Fuzzy Catcher by Tom
    Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Pinaud Lilac Vegetal AS

    This is my first shave with the Fuzzy Catcher by Tom. I did not notice the usual chatter you get with a lather catcher, but the shave was smooth and comfortable.

    The Williams Mug Soap lathered well with The Brush B-3 by Tom. Two passes and touch ups with the Fuzzy Catcher razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Lilac Vegetal AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

  5. I had a great shave today with the Fuzzy Catcher by @twhite and the Schick type F on loan from @mayer57619. The Wickham Irish Fern lathered really well today. I love the scent of this soap. End result was a near BBS.

  12. The razors was designed and printed by @twhite. The man is a mad scientist when it comes to razor design. And I mean that in the best way. We are just testing them and giving feedback.

    A few days ago using a former favourite 1912 Gem Junior, I had a most unpleasant Shave trying to cope with Two days growth. In complete contrast The Bathroom Set 1912 , was as smooth as anything dealing with Two Days Growth, and I had no hassle getting a Parade Ground finish.

  19. I just bought a DeHaven model 3 with a broken blade in the blade holder. Soaked overnight in WD-40 then pulled blade pieces out with Vicegrips. Don't wiggle up and down because that just breaks the blade off. I then pushed old DE blade from the side to be sure all the pieces were removed.
