The Grosvenor 404mixed
Cyril Salter Solid soap
Claymore Evolution
Feather Proguard ( 4 )
Pitralon Polar A/S Lotion

Off early this morning for what looks like being a scorcher, officiating trackside. Rather nice to know that a Shave is going to be a good one, that is why I again chose to use The Evo - it really works for me. Wonder how it will work with another handle that I have ordered, having been attracted by its looks on an Evo on SOTD.

SE SOTD, Tuesday, July12th 2022

Razor : Valet Auto-strop C1 model, Canadian variant- Mfg 1920's, built during the roaring 1920's, great design for its time, I resurrected this razor because I wanted to try some repairs from the previous owner who was rough on this beautiful razor. The gap was changed from 11/1000 to 7/1000 gap of inch for a much smoother shave. Very easy razor to use once blade loaded IMO.
Blade : Gem modified SS PTFE(6) this blade still works in the Valet Auto-strop C 1 series razor with spline removed and sniped in corners of blade.
Soap : Razorock blue barber- nice mid range scent with excellent lather qualities.
Brush : Yaqi Panda 24mm tuxedo knot, excellent lather generator, nice scrub, cloud like soft tips + 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 Valet auto strop C1 with a Modified Gem blade


Have some great shaves!

 

This is a beautiful and very efficient razor. Nuf said.

MWF
TNNSER- 3D
Gem S/S ( ? )
Pitralon Classic A/S Lotion

Not at all sure of the age of the blade, but clearing 2 days growth was rather uncomfortable. However, there were no mishaps and the finish OK for a Supermarket visit.
The MWF produced a great Lather which probably helped the Shave from being a lot worse comfort wise.

After such a good Shave with The Evo and a titanium handle, I just had to try it out on my Hawk V3- A plate.The slightly reduced weight made the Razor feel more secure in the hand and was more agile.Very pleased with the Finish quality, attained with ease and not a hint of possible mishap.
