    Razor: Gillette President w/case and blade pack. (Y1)(1953)
    Blade: Gillette GSB (4)
    Brush: DFS LE w/Envy White
    Soap: TSD Iced Irish Spring Type
    A/S: TSD Iced Irish Spring Type

    Gillette is one of my favorite Vintage Gillette razor. The DFS LE whipped up an excellent cooling lather, and the after shave provided a cool finish.
    Hope everyone is having a great Father's Day. :happy088:

    SHAVE DEN SUNDAY
    Happy Fathers Day to all!

    Time for a Sunday drive with my new 1912 Gem Damaskeene.

    I've also been encouraged to try it with stropped blades. So with a well-intentioned nudge from @twhite (as well as some NOS blades and a stropper he PIF'd to me) my less-than manly mechanical skills will be challenged yet again.

    Hot shower, cold-water shave.
    Razor: 1912 Gem Damaskeene
    Blade: NOS EverReady Corrux
    Brush: Rubberset 400-4
    Soap: TSD Yin Yang
    TSD Witch Hazel
    AS: TSD Yin Yang

    Cheers!

    Sunday Shave
    [​IMG]
    Brush- RazoRock Tri-Colored
    Razor- The Bunny with Wild comb and Schick Type G
    Blade- Schick (2)
    Soap- Stirling Barbershop
    Post Care- Crystal Alum
    Thayers Witch Hazel with grapefruit EO and M-Bomb
    Pinaud Bay Rum
    Florida Water with M-Bomb

    Final shave with the Bunny, it's been a pleasure to try and I'll miss it. Same equipment as the last shave except I switched sides. The Bunny got my left side, the Type G got the right. As usual, the Stirling produced a wonderful lather with possibly my favorite scent. I did three passes again and here's the result.
    First pass was WTG with both and I had great reduction, I like how audible the Bunny is and how easy it is to clean out. The Type G makes it easier to get into tight spots because of its head size however I still prefer the Bunny. Second pass I went XTG, the Bunny finished this pass closer than the Schick. Third pass was ATG and I'm left with a BBS with the Bunny, DFS with the Schick. The Bunny just gets closer. There was a little bit of feedback from the alum on my left side, zero from the Schick. Even with the feedback the Bunny still wins. I'm definitely smoother on my left side. I think with a little cleanup I'd be BBS with the Schick so that is comforting me since the Bunny moves on tomorrow. Have a great day folks!

    Razor: Ever-Ready SE
    Blade: GEM Blue Star
    Brush: WDC-8 Brass Handle, Druida Manchurian
    Soap: TSD 2X Iced Yin Yang
    A/S: TSD 2X Iced Yin Yang

    A very cooling shave on a hot day. The WDC-8 w/ Druida Manchurian knot whipped up a great lather. The Ever-Ready with the GEM blade mowed down the stubble with excellent feed back.
