Did two passes this morning. I think the blade may be starting to wane. The two pass shave is not as good as before. I have also found that the razor keeps water in between the two parts of the head and I am having difficulties with getting the blade fully rinsed off. Though I'm still in love with this razor.

 

Good picture Jim.

 

Good looking gear Perry.

 

Thank you, Doug! Have a great day!

 

How do you like the Alu General Mark?

 

Thanks, Doug!

 

November 5th.. Back to the GEM Jr. with the Baton handle. The more I use it, the handle just sits my hand perfect. I have no other razor the has a baton style. Fantastic design on handle.

Tuesday's Shave


Proraso Pre Shave
Musgo Real
Jayaruh #220

I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Musgo Real Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #220 synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Schick Adjustable razor and Personna blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Aqua Velva AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Good picture Jim .

I have decided to use my boar brush for all of this month to get it completely broke in. It is starting to soften up some so I guess you could say I am off to a good start. Uncle Jon's Gravity worked great this morning and has a good scent. I did three passes this morning to try and bring the baby home hoping to prove to myself that the Pink blade had not turned south. Ended up with a DFS but not the BBS stellar shave I got when the blade was new. I will use this blade for a couple more shaves(cause I'm cheap & I am still getting a DFS out of it). On the bright side the next blade to go into the razor is a Schick Proline I got in a PDF on another Forum. Finished my shave with some Avon Blend 7 and I am ready for the day.

SOTD November 7, 2017

Prep: Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap
Blade: GEM stainless
Razor: GEM 1912
Brush: Surrey badger
Lather: Stirling The Lounge
Post: Witch hazel, Jeeves of Hudson Street Tobacco Bay Leaf aftershave
WTG, touch up

Good shave this morning. The 1912 works okay for me but isn't as smooth as the Pushbutton or Featherweight. But good results in the end. I choose the 1912 less than the others but get good results regardless.

Enjoy your day!
