    Monday, October 3rd

    Razor: Wilkinson Sticky
    Blade: Schick Plus Platinum
    Brush: Simpson Douglas
    Pre-Shave: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
    Soap: Old Spice Mug Soap
    A/S: Trumper Marlborough

    All but the Glyce Lime soap are no longer in production. I find it amazing that one used to be able to buy Old Spice soap at the local drug store; it is actually a very nice soap.

    Super Speed
    Voskhod (1)
    TGN Silvertip
    AOS PreShave Oil


    Godrej Menthol Mist
    Neutrogena AS Balm
    Gillette CoolWave AS

    Man I haven't used this razor in forever! My very first DE, it must've been itching to get used because it gave up a lovely lovely shave. I'm sure the Godrej didn't hurt either. Smooth as silk. 4.5/5

    I don't have an open comb so I used my DE89

    Jagger DE89
    Ladas Blade
    Hot Towel
    eBarber Preshave
    Palmolive Italian Cream-nice and mentholy
    Cold Soak
    eBarber witch hazel
    eBarber almond balm
    Aqua Velva Ice Sport
    Caswell Massey Jockey Club Talc

    Thank you Phil from Bullgoose. I selected a Ladas and the Palmolive. Much sharper then the blades I have been using.

    I didn't shave this am, I wanted good stubble for this shave...and I can't find a hair on my face.

    This just keeps getting better-BBS #4, and a lot easier then the first three. What a shave:git:

    The items on the towel where used in today's shave:

    Ahhhhhhh, isn't that cream a delight to lather directly from the tub?

    Yes, it worked very well. I may need a bit drier brush and some more vigorous loading to get the best lather, but this mornings lather was still great. Thanks for all your help!

    Erwin, ich bin mit die Kappus Nautik RC vertraut. Aber das erstes Mal hatte mich ich damit rasiert, wurde ich sehr enttäuscht, weil obwohl es Menthol enthält, kann ich keine Kühlwirkung bemerken. Der Schaum ist reich und leicht zu schlagen, und es gibt gute Hautpflege.

    Liebe Grüße nach Deutschland!

    Placed the proper sized snurdle of the frigid ISZ Wheat Cream in my lathering bowl and hit it with the Sardinero brush, wasn't no chasing it around the bowl nor brush overload, just "BOOM" loads of chilly face freezing goodness! :biggrin:

    As always the Shave King O/C razor performed well for me, and I still haven't decided if I will stick with it all week or switch to one of my other O/C razors. :think002:

    5 Blades!

    My arms were shot after martial arts class, making this a difficult shave.​
    Thankfully my previously damaged hamstring wasn't too bad after a 3 month lay off, but I have a new fragrance.[​IMG]
