    Razor: Micromatic flying wing, MMBT, Guiding eye...- Mfg1948, great mid range<, heaviest of the Micromatics, carefree to use.
    Blade: Gem Personna SS PTFE (5) excellent blade, very sharp, smooths out nicely, great longevity & predictable,
    Soap: Proraso red sandal wood- nice milder scent with great lather qualities.
    Brush: Razorock noir 400 plissoft 24mm- great synthetic brush reminds me of a boar brush, soft tips with a bit of back bone for a scrub.
    Pre shave: brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave: Proraso red sandal wood [​IMG]with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.
    Results: CCS, DFS. BBS + no irritation + no weepers = [​IMG] excellent milder mid range shave with my MMBT and coated SS Gem blade.(not much to shave from yesterday close shave.)

    Haha! Yup a change today! My face has been acting weird lately and flushing red (although no irritation felt) so I needed something milder to try for awhile!

    It's a very nice sandalwood, Paul. Best? Not sure. Salter makes an Indian Sandalwood that is very close to the real thing.

    Shave of the Week Starting 1 Feb 2021

    Gillette Slim Adjustable
    Glatz blade
    Plisson/L'Occitane brush
    Seaforth! Heather SS
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Seaforth! Heather A/S

    Mighty fine shave indeed! All the parts are known and wonderful except the Glatz blade. I got 100 of those when I purchased a new Pearl Flexi razor. The razor was defective, new one on the way, but thought I would try one of these out. Not the sharpest but very smooth, comfortable and did a good job. Just had to move the Slim from 7 to 8. I could like these. Anyway, all is well and my face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

    Blade is a 1990 NOS from a 7 blade key in an unopened box. Learned that this razor has a wide angle of use. I used this at about as steep of an angle as it will shave. Shave was the closest I've gotten with this razor also the most irritation I've had from this razor. End result BBS finish achieved.
