September 21 SOTA

Good afternoon.

Schick G2
Pella SE Blade (5)
MrEE Cashmere Synthetic Brush
Stirling Tsuka SS and AS
Stirling Alum Block
Lucky Witch Hazel
Beard Growth: 2.3 Days



Had a nice, comfortable, error-free 2 pass shave. I find the G2 more aggressive than my I-1 and less aggressive than my E-1. I went with loading the brush and repeatedly wetting the tips to produce a nice, slick lather. Honestly, how can you not get a great lather with Stirling soaps?
Had a decent feedback from the alum. Splashed on the witch hazel and the wonderful matching aftershave to finish this session. Take care.

 

What do you mean by higher efficiency?

I will still at times as needed turn the dial up 1 higher to get the chin all the way done then go back for the rest of the face. Nice part is I get also get the dial set so I can shave where I need unlike my previous shaver model, the Micro Touch One where the shaver is stuck at what you get from the blade and shaver is what you have to use.

 

I meant that you dialed it up one setting higher which makes the razor slightly more aggressive and thus more efficient.

 

I was only able to do so because the blade was not going to cut my skin now when using normally. This is the beauty of an adjustable shaver is they can have more aggression as needed when the blade dulls in a tad.

22 Sept 2025

Single use DE Blade
Shave Stick

Sticking to the Tuckaway again with a 2 day growth while I try a fresh new blade each day, minimising variables. That said I did skip the pre-shave routine.

2 Days growth

Prep: Cold water shave
Soap = Wilkinson shave stick
Brush = Semogue Pegasus
Face lather
Razor = Tuckaway
Blade = Wilkinson (1) Made in China
Passes = 3
Post = Usual CWR, Alum, rinse, pat dry, Thayer’s rose petal
ASB = L’Occitane
ASL = Blue Stratos
Scent = Blue Stratos
Damage = None

Three passes needed to complete the shave: either due to skipping my usual Pre-shave routine, or, somewhat more likely, due this blade not being the keenest. To be honest it felt a bit rough and and needed careful supervision. Either way, success was had, and no damage to report

Have a good day one and all…

 

Nice to see you rocking the SEs Barry

I agree the Stirling soaps are affordable, very slick and easy enough to lather. I glad I have a few more pucks left!

Keep looking for the Tsuka to be re-released, but no such luck yet

 

The vintage SEs have been pleasure to shave with.

 

absolutely stunning tuckaway.fine shave and pic Chris.glad you are enjoying it.
