  1. Arko Adjustable April

    April 22

    Razor - Schick Injector (M) (Wide open)
    Blade - [​IMG]
    Soap - Arko
    Brush - Stirling Two Band Synthetic
    Post - Alum

    Well that day sure went by fast. Guess days off typically do that. I did get some things done I needed, though, which is a good thing. The main thing, however, was getting to the shave tonight. I enjoy the Schick "M" and I enjoyed another great lather with the Arko and my smaller Stirling synthetic brush. I stuck with two passes and a little touch up tonight for a nice DFS finish. No blood, no irritation, no worries. Just an all around great shave to get me back to the start of my week. Hope your Monday was a great one and here's to an even better tomorrow!

    A repeat wonderful shave tonight with no problems. I may use this razor all week. Maybe I'll keep Arko in a regular slot each week in the future as well. It really is a great all around budget soap. I hope everyone had a great Easter Monday!

  5. Thank you. I edited in a brand new picture to show off the vintage bar soap for the bath and I used my full bottle vintage back up cologne and aftershave bottles. I always try to have spares for the long-term. The Gillette ABC is a very finicky shave despite being a master-crafted ornate razor.

    Todays shave was with a razor i have neglected for far too long, in fact i havent used it since December. My very first DE razor, the Lion DE. Although I'll absolutely agree that their blades are not the best, their razors can give you a perfect BBS shave. Ill be posting a review on this razor soon as the last time i used it was before i joined shave forums, but here was the setup for today's shave.

    Razor: lion DE
    Blade: feather hi-stainless (23)
    Soap: bundubeard coffee
    Brush: dischem synthetic

    Jayaruh #343 Synthetic
    Ever-Ready 1909
    Vintage Gem Cutlery SE

    Tabac AS

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Tabac Shave Soap face lathered well with Jayaruh #343 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Ever-Ready 1909 razor with a Vintage Gem Cutlery SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Another nice shave with the DSC shave soap. Still working on getting the water/soap ratio figured out but still got a nice protective/slick lather even though it sure didn't look like it. My face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks

    It seems an age since I last used an SE and this little razor has rightfully established itself as one of my favourites.
    Happy Shaving one and all.
