Injector & SE Party !!!

Monday 21st January




Ever-Ready 1924 with a GEM SS Blade

 

Mon 21st Jan.

Jayaruh No 67 / Maggards 2 Band
La Toja Stick
ES Claymore V1 + EJ89 Handle
Schick Proline [ 8 ]
La Toja A/S Lotion

Whilst I am enjoying use of my Alu AC/Se Razors, moving on to a heavyweight gets their performance into perspective for me at least. With the Claymore I use a lighter handle so it really is head heavy, but used with a light touch it really whips any growth away with ease. An excellent Monday morning Shave, am more than pleased at the quality of the overall finish.

Menthol Monday's Shave


Cold Water Wash
TSD Cool Lime
Jayaruh #340
TNNSER by @twhite
GEM Blue Star SE
CWR
Osage Rub

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The TSD Cool Lime Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #340 badger brush. I did two passes with the TNNSER razor with a GEM Blue Star SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

I just recieved that brush along with the Green Ray brush. How do you like your Starcraft?.

I like it. I don't have a whole lot of experience with synthetic brushes. I'm actually doing a focus this month with them. To be honest other than the shape of the handles I don't find much difference between brushes. Maybe with more experience I'll be better at picking out the differences between them.

I notice slight differences in the backbone of the synthetics, and some are softer than others. My JR-336 Tuxedo is my favorite synthetic brush. It's a soap eater, yet it feels nice on my skin.

Gem Damaskeene razor
Treet blade
FS Silver Tip brush
CO Bigelow SC
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Colorado Sage cologne

The Damaskeene is a really mild shaver for me, to mild in fact. I have trouble getting a good shave with it. Oh well, there are other razors and more days to shave. Now go enjoy your day folks.

Post: Witch hazel, Jeeves of Hudson Street Tobacco Bay Leaf aftershave

Easy one pass shave. Will shave again in less than 24 hours so I didn't push it. Smooth and comfortable. Have a great day!

 

Marvelous shave, both G-Bar and Feather Weight comfortable and efficient, perhaps a small efficiency advantage to the G-Bar, handling advantage to the FW. B&M soap is fantastic.

 

Such a great razor.

 

Buenas noches!!

-4.5/5 I've started tonight with the Eversharp Hydro-matic and, after two passes it was so inefficient that I was forced to make a third pass with the Tilt T3. LEA Classic soap it's an outstanding product and helped to mitigate the disaster caused by the SE razors.

Un saludo.-

King Cobra
Kai Captain Mild Pink [ 3 ]
Floid Vigoroso A/S Lotion

The KC Because of its handle seems quite large compared with my other AC/SE Razors, so it is taking me a bit longer to get used to it. On the whole quite pleased with the Shave, I felt more comfortable with the Razor, so in the main was quite smooth and the overall finish not bad at all.
