    What razor is that? Is it vintage it new? Nice either way.

    A great shave this morning. Near bbs..
    -hot shower
    -proraso green soap
    -tv special Gillette razor
    -Astra sp (3)
    - wtg,xtg,atg, clean up
    -witch hazel , traders joes balm
    This was my first time using this razor.. And it so far has given me the best shave... I have a red tip , 66 slim, weishi, merkur long handle..
    The blade I used already had 3 shaves on it and it felt like a new blade in this razor.. Although I got irritation and weepers, that was due to me being greedy and wanting bbs. Great experience !!

    Continued success with an injector razor...albeit a mild one. Today's shave was a nice DFS. I find the injector a paradox. It seems easier to use than a DE (angle...etc), but seems more difficult to get it to shave close. I'm feeling that the result is good, but the process is not as enjoyable as a DE. Still a work in progress.[​IMG]

    I have the same badger brush. But mine is sooo floppy. Do you have the same problem.. It fans out when I'm using it. I like to synthetic brush that came with my trader joes kit .. Lot more back bone to it .
