Thursday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Proraso Sandalwood
Jayaruh #426
Personna Injector Razor
Personna Injector Blade
CWR
Lustray Spice After Shave

The Proraso Sandalwood Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #426 Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Personna Injector Razor with a Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

That looks great. The grip looks kinda rubbery. Is that right, or is it hard plastic with a texture to it?
I've thought about putting a wrap on several of my thinner razor handles.

Looks a bit rubbery but I think is softish plastic . There is the short handled Tennis Grip L series and has a similar look.

SE SOTD, Friday, June 3rd 2022

Razor : Yaqi V2 Excalibur AC 50mm- Mfg 2021> excellent tame mid range, simple clamping design, very affordable if some one is thinking of venturing into AC razor formats, small head parts, I get repeated great shaves with this razor, could be a daily driver for a lot of folks. I like to assemble razor over a wash cloth for easy assembly of small parts. Top cap might have to be manually adjusted before final tightening.

Soap : Speick, nice mild spicy scent with excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi 24mm timber wolf knot, excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, nice scrubber + excellent lather painter.

Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.

Saturday Morning Luxury Shave

Razor: Blackland Vector
Blade: Feather Professional AC
Soap: TOBS Sandalwood
A/S: Proraso red


A Vector arrived in the mail yesterday, and this was my first use of one.

Oh My Flippin Goodness. I'm speechless.

First stroke -- "Did I put a blade in this thing? Is the sharp side facing the back?"
First pass - 80%-90% of stubble removed.
Second pass -- almost unnecessary; more of a touchup

Sunday Schick Shave, June 5th 2022

Razor : Schick E2 type, Canadian variant, Mfg 1930's 40's, excellent mid range, light touch works the best for stellar shaves, 1OZ weight, I like using this razor because of end results.

Blade : Personna injector SS PTFE (10)- Very sharp, smooths out nicely, great longevity + predictable.
Soap : Gillette Pure cream- nice mid range clean scent + excellent lather qualities. Makes excellent ubber lather(mixed in with left over soap.
Brush : Yaqi 24mm Mountain lake 2 band badger, excellent lather generator, pillow like soft tips, very nice scrubber + excellent lather painter.
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 : Fine Fresh Vetiver with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results :CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= Excellent shave with my Schick E2 injector with a coated Personna blade.


Have some great shaves!

 

I definitely like the look of that N but I've never been interested in the L with the tennis racquet grip.

 

Do not often see the N3 up for sale and then the asking price around £35 + shipping for UK.

 

Further to my last. One in Bay and it is BIN.
