    Cold Water Rinse
    Proraso Sandalwood
    Jayaruh #206 2-band Badger
    Supply V2
    Personna Injector
    CWR
    PSC Caffeinated After Shave

    The Proraso Sandalwood Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #206 2-band Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Supply V2 razor with a Personna Injector blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with PSC Caffeinated After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Jayaruh Syn. no67
    L`Occitane Cade cream
    RR Hawk V3-OC
    Kai CT Pink Mild [ 7 ]
    Puig Quorum A/S Lotion

    Not used this cream for a while, not too much left. Very pleasant to use but realistically do not see it being replaced as coffers full of soap. I think blade has one more outing, then I might try my Kai guarded blade.

    Sticking to a one blade, one razor run of shaves until this blade is finished to practice finding the goldilocks amount of pressure to apply to get a BBS finish without nicking yourself.

    Cool shave, I like the picture. Looks like a shadow box display.

    My second shave with the Ever-Ready Streamline on loan from @twhite went better than the first.
    I checked online for the instructions that come with the razors and found that they recommend not shaving with the cap flat to your skin like many of the Gem and Ever-Ready razors. This along with paying more attention to beard mapping and no pressure resulted in a closer more comfortable shave. I also had the most successful shave with a boar brush yet. I soaked it much longer than previously. Usually when I have used a boar brush the Lather starts good but dissipates quickly. This time however it wasn't an issue at all.
    Also I borrowed the idea for the picture from @Electrif. I liked the way one of his recent post pictures looked like a shadowbox display.

    RR Hawk V3-OC
    Kai CT Mild Pink [ 8 ]
    Pitralon Classic A/S Lotion

    Just had a total of 12 Shaves with this Razor, the last 8 being with a Kai-Pink. The OC is a very nice Razor and not one to be afraid of, use a blade that suits you and provided you do not rush a good quality Shave is on the cards.

    RR 400. SE-Plissoft noir
    P & B Spitfire
    ES Claymore V1 /Ikon handle
    Kai Pro Touch MG [ 1 ]
    P & B Spitfire A/S Splash.

    My first use of this particular Kai blade. Very smooth and comfortable, with a great close finish on my Face, but not so good around the neck.
    However, this is an area where the Claymore seems not to work that well for me.
    Will try this blade in other Razors where I have found a guarded blade works well. I find that a guarded blade in some Razors, allows me to work at getting rid of my tough beard with no fear of weepers or irritation. Not to sure if performance justifies the price difference between them and the Feather Proguard.

    Omega 11137 boar
    Arran Aromatics-Bay Citrus
    Schick "O" Clone
    Schick S/S Twin -Japan [ 1 ]
    GB Grey Flannel A/S Lotion

    After a few weeks on AC/SE I thought why not get a laid back Sunday Shave. The Ideal choice was the "O" Clone, especially with a fresh blade as it is so smooth and forgiving. Got a nice finish but did not push for ultra close which it will deliver.
