SE SOTD, Thursday, Sept 7th 2023 Razor : Valet auto-strop C1 Canadian variant- Mfg 1920's-30's, mid range. This is a interesting looking razor and it was very popular for it's era and sold millions of them because the owner Henry Gaisman had plants around the world. You can buy blades to this day that will work(Feather FHS-10), I use a modified Gem blade that is superior to other blades that fit this C1 razor. I also modified it a little because the previous owner had the gap to large and just did not take care of it. I had a great comfortable close shave with my Valet auto-strop C1. Blade : Modified Gem blade(3) very sharp, excellent longevity, smooths out nicely, predictable + safest blade to handle (with a spine on it!) Soap : Razorock American barber, sharp parallel unique scent with excellent lather qualities. Aftershave scent is similar but lasts. Brush : Yaqi "Barber pole" 24mm 2band badger, excellent lather generator, pillow like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + great 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 American barber AS with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless). Results : or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= Excellent comfortable close shave this morning with Valet auto-strop with a modified coated blade. Have some great shaves!

SE SOTD, Friday September 8th 2023 Razor : Yaqi Excalibur SE 50mm AC type + a Yaqi Milano 316 SSP- Mfg 2021>, tame mid range. Very simple clamping system with small head parts(I work over a wash cloth for assembly). This little razor head is one of my best performers for consistent shaving 95%> of the time. If a person is considering SE AC shaving it is very affordable (Excalibur 50mm)but not as affordable as a Gem ASR razors because Gem PTFE blades are much cheaper and last longer from my Experiences. Had a stellar comfortable close shave this morning! Blade : Schick proline p30(3) sharp and smooth with reasonable longevity. Schick proline is a good match for my Yaqi Excalibur. Soap : Razorock Irish spring, nice fresh interesting soap with some excellent lather qualities, hard to beat for lather qualities IMO.It is one of those soaps the more you use it the more your enjoy it. Just opened up my 2nd tub this morning! Brush : Yaqi "Rainbow" 26mm brown whiskers synthetic, excellent lather generator, luxury cloud like soft tips, gentle splay scrubber + excellent lather painter. Excellent brush for general shaving needs is my conclusion. 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 Irish spring with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless). Results : or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= Excellent stellar comfortable close shave with my Yaqi SE Excalibur 50 mm razor with a Schick proline. Have some great shaves!

Thought I would post my shave for the past 4 months. All the same tools and soap. Only my AS has changed a couple of times. This Personna blade is still killing it same blade. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
