    Vintage April, 2023 + SE SOTD, Thursday, April 6th 2023

    Razor : Valet Auto strop, C1 Canadian variant- Mfg 1920's, mid range, I did some modifications to the gap from .011 to .007 of a inch, lot smoother shave know than before. With a modified modern Gem SS PTFE blade this razor has lots of life left in it. Had a great shave with this 100 yr old razor.
    Blade : Modified Gem Personna SS PTFE (2) very sharp, excellent longevity, smooths out nicely + predictable.
    Soap : Razorock Santa Maria del Fiore, nice vanilla scent with some light tobacco scent + excellent lather qualities.
    Brush : Yaqi "Bali" 24mm Silver tip (3 band) badger, excellent lather generator, heavenly pillow like soft tips, very nice splay scrubber + excellent lather painter.
    Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave : Razorock Santa Maria del Fiore with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : 1-10 dial - Copy (2)4 template 9.jpg or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Excellent shave with my Valet Auto strop with a modified Gem coated blade.

    Friday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Cella Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #371 Badger/Boar
    GEM Damaskeene
    Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Cella After Shave Balm

    The Cella Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #371 Badger/Boar brush. Two passes and touch ups with the GEM Damaskeene and a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and Cella After Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
