    Terrific shave Jim!

    Does that soap smell anything like the Old Spice soap? I have one that smells exactly like it.

    Friday morning:

    L’Oréal Men Expert Barber Club Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Rapira day 12
    De Vergulde Hand Extra Fris SS
    Proraso Blue ASB
    English Leather Classic AS Splash

    Does this Extra Fris version of De Vergulde Hand ever perform like a champ - the scent is so nice, (to me!) the lather explodes off my brush and gets so thick, rich, as well as cushiony, and the skincare is pretty damned good. The Proraso Blue balm is so moisturizing and soothing. Finally a couple of splashes of the English Leather and I’m ready to start my day with my morning coffee and a bite to eat. Three swift passes and I’m smoother than silk - what a fantastic BBS shave this was!

    Enjoy the weekend - be well and stay safe![​IMG]

    Friday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Colgate Shaving Mug Soap
    Jayaruh #434 Synthetic
    English Ever-Ready
    Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Granddad's Blend After Shave

    The Colgate Shaving Mug Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #434 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the English Ever-Ready Razor and a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Granddad's Blend After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Razor : Ever-Ready 2nd generation streamline - 1st gen was Mfg 1930's & 2nd gen 1950's, upper mid range, one of the best eye candy looking razors made by ASR corp. I find I like to use a RIGS shim underneath modern blade with this razor to smooth out the shave because the razor was designed around the thicker splined blades then. Had a close shave this morning with no issues + enjoyable.
    Blade : Gem Personna SS PTFE (9) very sharp, excellent longevity, nicely smooths out over use, predictable + safest blade to handle.
    Soap : Razorock XXX Fresco, nice XXX clean scent with some menthol + excellent lather qualities.
    Brush : Yaqi " Mysterious space" 24mm timber wolf synthetic, excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + excellent lather painter.
    Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave : Razorock XXX Fresco with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : 1-10 dial - Copy (2)3 template 9.5.1.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Excellent shave with my Ever-ready streamline with a coated Gem blade.

    Absolut. Es war eine sehr sehr gute Rasur.

    Habe mir direkt jetzt mal 3 Seifen von Master Soap Creations bestellt. Die sollen ebenfalls klasse sein.
