    Hi all,

    I had a great shave this morning with a classic Gillette whether you like it or not the Slim adjustable is an iconic razor.

    Following immediately after it’s more famous older cousin the $1.95/Fatboy adjustable.



    As far as I can tell on close inspection the adjustable head is the same on both models. (My opinion only)

    Although the plating is of better quality on the $1.95/Fatboy.

    As far as which one I prefer shave wise.

    I would pick the slim purely because the longer handle is a bit easier for me to manoeuvre.



    The razor on setting seven worked very well with the Wizamet blade.

    Like all adjustable razors , the settings are up to the individual to work out what suits them best.



    One pass WTG/ATG with a couple of touchups.

    No nicks no worries.



    Finished off nicely with the classic 4711 aftershave splash.



    Cheers.

    Williams Wednesday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #30 Silvertip Badger
    RazoRock Black Hawk
    Feather Professional AC
    CWR
    Humphrey's Witch Hazel
    Duru Cologne

    The Williams Mug Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #30 Silvertip Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the RazoRock Black Hawk Razor and the Feather Professional AC Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Duru Cologne. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

  18. Wednesday morning’s Nuclear Grand Freeze:

    Cool shower
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/7 AM day 4
    Stirling Glacial Cedar SS
    Bundubeard Stoffel ASB
    Stirling Glacial Cedar AS Splash
    Azzaro Wanted By Night EdP

    No fooling around today - it’s going to be 40 Celsius with the humidity factor so it had to be a FRIGID setup. The Glacial Cedar soap and aftershave smell so beautiful and give a menthol sensation that can knock a polar bear on his tukhis. The Wanted By Night fragrance from Azzaro is nice, yes but it’s not something I would buy again. All in all a great three pass BBS shave that was most enjoyable. Off to my pool soon!

    Wishing you all a great day - be well and stay safe![​IMG]
