    Saturday Straights' Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    PSC Caffeinated Shave Cream
    Jayaruh #445 Synthetic
    Gravjura 5/8
    CWR
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    PSC Caffeinated AS

    The PSC Caffeinated Shave Cream lathered well with Jayaruh #445 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gravjura 5/8 straight gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then PSC Caffeinated AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
  5. After reading about Hans’ four, count ‘em, four MK 31s I had to break mine out. It was a marvelous shave taking down five days of stubble with ease :happy036:

  7. That’s one of the more unusual looking blades I’ve seen. I’m guessing it’s a good shave with the nice smile and the heft of the spine behind it :chores016:

  8. It does just seem natural… I enjoy a good smile. :)
    Weiss has a pretty cool back story and this pair has to be one of my favorites. Not sure if it is close to your Ragg razors, but might be close.

  12. Sunday evening shave, Eriksson & Björklund No.1 4/8”. Smooth as a peach . One of the more rare producers of razors from Eskilstuna. Excellent steel, the store is that a former employee at Heljestrand started his own business. Quite similar looks like CVH.

    An American razor Sunday! Cattaraugus green lizard was the weapon of choice, my custom g7 synthetic brush, and sterling haverford for a most plush lather and aftershave

  16. Karl, one of the best razors in my opinion. CVH except the 24 model is normally great razors. The 24 is to much wedge… I have a bunch of Sheffield razors and I don’t like them. Now I’m probably going to offend someone in this community
