    After Saturday's shave I'd really given up trying to like the Proshave blade. The blade was its second use and both times it had been too rough on the first pass. Back to the trusty Proline.

    First shave with the TARMAX SE. I think the 7th use blade let it down. I will try a fresh blade next shave. It wasn't a bad shave by any means but it wasn't as smooth as I expected after using the TARMAX DE.

    Razor : Gem MicroMatic OC, Mfg 1930-41, mid to upper mid range depending on blade # of uses + personal technique, well built and excellent design for securing the blade and will last many more generations IMO with some care. Excellent shave today!
    Blade : Gem Personna SS PTFE(9) very sharp, great longevity, smooths out nicely, predictable + safest blade to handle.
    Soap : Razorock Santa Maria del Fiore, nice vanilla & light tobacco scent added + excellent lather qualities.
    Brush :Yaqi "Panda" 24mm tuxedo knot, excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + excellent lather painter. I got this on sale 2 years ago and like to use it once in a while because of the detail.
    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 Santa Mari del Fiore with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results :CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] excellent shave this morning with my MMOC with a coated Gem blade.

    RR 400. SE Plissoft noir
    Cyril Salter Solid soap
    ES Claymore V1
    Kai Captain Titan Protouch MG ( 8 )
    Pitralon Polar A/S Lotion

    This is most likely to be the one of the few AC/SE Razors produced in UK. Despite its weight I manage to get a decent Shave with it.

    Alpha Classic G4 28mm
    La Toja - grated stick
    ATT SE1
    Kai Captain Titan Mild Pink ( 1 )
    La Toja A/S Lotion

    I do like La Toja so have grated some down, as I prefer to bowl lather. Initially got the brush too wet and had to wring it out to det a good Lather. I rather enjoyed shaving only a days growth and was pleased at the way the Razor/ Blade combined as I have not paired them much. All in all a nice Shave and quality finish.
