Razor: Valet Auto Strop Model "C"- 1935-40/ Gillette 1958 TV Special(1) Feather blade) Blade: Valet New Process (1) Brush: Frendrihen Silver Tip Badger Faux Horn Handle 22/49 Cream: Proraso A/S: Pinaud Lime Got home late yesterday after golf Tournament and didn't shave. Morning shave today. Used the Gold Valet Model C with a Valet blade. Can't seem to get the GEM Feather blade to fit this razor. The razor has a nice feel to it, however, the blade was dull and didn't provide a good shave. Finished with the 58 TV Special and all was saved for a DFS. I'll have to learn to use the Strop that @Drygulch helped me get back in shape.
Tabac Tuesday, September 8, 2015 Mr. Glo Mongoose with Triad Ti Helix Spiral Feather Pro #6 Paladin PK-47 LE Tabac Shave Soap Dickinson’s ++Menthol, Cucumber Melon Whipped Shea Butter Tabac Aftershave Lotion Great evening shave. Three pass BBS. I had to change the blade after the first pass. Shaving tonight since we must catch an early flight to New England tomorrow. Tabac is an easy lathering soap with a great scent. Clean up in the morning with a shower. Finished with generous dousing of Tabac Afershave. Ready for the airlines. Famous last words. First stop Midway, Chicago.
Went with Barbasol(the red can-natural barbershop pole) today, followed up with Gillette Cool Wave AS.

Boker Master Razor straight razor Blade: Gem PTFE coated SE blade (7) Brush: Vie Long Horse Hair Soap: RazoRock - Tobacco #1 After: Home made ASB, Aqua Velva Ice Blue Cologne: Aqua H2O It is Tobacco Tuesday! The Vie Long brush whipped the Tobacco #1 into a nice lather. The Clog Pruf paired with the GEM blade and the Boker did a great job taking down the 3 days worth of stubble. The AV and the Aqua H2O were a fine finish for this almost BBS shave. Have a blessed day!
