Ever Ready 1912- Bathroom Set
Gem S/S [ 2 ]
Jaguar Prestige A/S Lotion

A rather pleasant Shave this morning with what is now my favourite British 1912. With the Aluminium round handle it to feels so nice in the hand during a shave, and the modern blade seems well suited to the Razor. There is not the usual 1912 noise, but it shaves so very smoothly and without fuss delivers a great close Shave.

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

Successful shave with the Revere injector. Easy, nimble, and mild. Need to try it with a twin blade. Have a great day!

 

Friday's Shave


Cold Water Wash
PSC Caffeinated Shave Cream
Jayaruh #220
Starling SE
Gem Blue Star SE
CWR
PSC Caffeinated AS

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The PSC Caffeinated Shave Cream face lathered well with the Jayaruh #220 brush. I did two passes with the Starling SE 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 PSC Caffeinated AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Schick G4/Route 66 razor
Personna 74 blade (#21)
Maison Lambert Silver Tip brush
Fume SS
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Daxton A/S

Shave #21 and still doing well, my face is happy. Love the Maison Lambert brush, it's huge but oh so nice. Need to use it more. Now go enjoy your day folks

 

Clog-Pruf Peerless/Proline-P

The rounded ends of the Proline-B make it impossible to secure them in the Micromatic but a trimmed AC Proline is fine. Very smooth.

 

I can share some SE blades if your out of them.

 

Colonial General Brass
Feather Pro Super

I'm speechless.
Happy Shaving one and all.

 

I think that deserves a thank you, so,

 

You are .

 

Just used my injector for the first time today. Nice feel. Pictures of it are in my post here https://theshaveden.com/forums/threads/the-haul-march-2019.61421/page-4 Only did a quick one pass shave with it today, but will need more time to get used to it.

 

Good afternoon Gentlemen! After exploring the razor that can use modern GEM blades, I became a fan of SE razors.

Добрый день Джентльмены! После знакомства с бритвой, которая может использовать современные лезвия GEM, я стал поклонником SE бритв.

 

Nice looking G1. Love the shaves from those.

 

Sat 8th March

Simpson Chubby 1 / Maggards 2 band
L`Occitane Cade soap
PAA Starling V2
Gem S/S [ 4 ]
Pitralon Polar A/S Lotion.

Disaster averted as I realised something amiss. Upon checking it out I found that the blade was askew. In order to keep the head less bulky, the blade retaining lugs are not very pronounced and after cleaning I had somehow managed to let the blade slip off a lug when putting head and base plate together.
I find that the Razor has a lot of blade feel and feels quite aggressive, and definitely it is a Razor not to be rushed. This is my Fourth Shave with it , and most certainly the best, almost a Face Stroker. I rather liken it to an ER1924 in the way that it Shaves, and IMHO produces a better Shave than a Sabre L1 and ATT SE-G.

Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap
Blade: GEM PTFE
Razor: Superior Lather Catcher
Brush: JR #60 synthetic
Soap: Oleo New City
Post: Witch hazel, Oleo New City aftershave

Been a while since I've used a SE razor. The Lather Catcher worked really well this morning. Smooth and comfortable. I find it a lot of fun and very interesting to use these old razors and get wonderful shaves from them. Our ancestors sure had stuff figured out when it came to tools and craftsmanship. Enjoy your day!
