Fri 9th Nov

Omega 11126 boar
De Vergulde hand
Supply SE V1 with V2 No3 plate,
Schick Proline [ 4 ]
Pitralon Polar A/S Lotion

After using the S/S PAL yesterday I just had to give the Supply SE an outing. I initially found that despite my best efforts I struggled to get a half decent Shave from this Razor. I managed to get hold of a V2 No 3 plate, and found it fitted the V1 body without a problem. Shave wise, I found that I could at last get the Razor to clear my heavy beard in a satisfactory manner.
Today, I had my best ever Shave with the Supply, very smooth with an excellent close all round finish. Furthermore overall Shave Time now very similar to that taken with some of my top performing razors. Currently I hand load blades into it rather than use the injector function, especially as I am using Schick Proline blades [ Type B ].

 

SOTD November 9, 2018

Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap
Blade: vintage Personna Ultra Chrome
Razor: Schick L5 'Revere'
Brush: Omega 10049 boar
Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat
Post: Witch hazel, Fine American Blend aftershave

Easy shave with the Revere injector. I enjoy the long handle and the razor is balanced quite well. Everything worked together nicely. Enjoy your day!

 

Friday's Shave


Cold Water Wash
Virgilio Valobra Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #270 Synthetic
Ever-Ready 1924
Gem Blue Star CS SE
CWR
PSC Caffeinated AS

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Virgilio Valobra Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #270 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Ever-Ready 1924 Razor with a Gem Blue Star CS SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with PSC Caffeinated AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Sat 10th Nov

RazoRock Syn. 24mm
L`Occitane Cade cream
Schick N3
Schick S/S Twin - Japan [ 7 ]
Floid Vigoroso A/S Lotion

Had a disturbed nights sleep so my shave later than usual. The Shave with the N3 was smooth and comfortable as usual, but I found the finish quality not as good as I expected. Possibly because the results of yesterdays shave with the Supply were so good.

 

Pre: Warm water splash
Brush: Boots Travel BB
Soap: Cella
Razor: E-R Featherweigh
Blade: Gem Blue Star CS
Post: Warm then cold water rinse, Cella ASL

A couple of big hitting lightweights were the stars of the show today.
Great little brush and razor.
Hope your weekend is a good one

Vulfix 404 mixed
Vitos Super Red
Schick J3- Golden 500
Schick S/S Single
- Japan [3 ]
Pitralon Classic A/S Lotion

This was the quality of Shave I expected with the N3/ Twin Blade yesterday but did not get. With an excellent Vitos Lather the Shave was off to a good start , it made it very smooth and comfortable. Though the J3 is mild when fitted with the Japanese Schick it is also very efficient, so without any difficulty a really close all round finish was attained.

 

Pre: Warm water splash
Brush: anBBas Boar
Soap: B&M Rosemary and Peppermint
Razor: Cobra Classic
Blade: Schick Proline P
Post: Warm then cold water rinse, Pitralon Classic ASL

A few favourites for a great Sunday shave.
Happy Shaving one and all.
