Fantastic shave. I started the shave with dorco prime but I think it's had it. I had to change out the blade and boy am I glad . It went soooo smooooth. BBS smoooth that is!

 

A most excellent shave this Canada Day morning using one of my moat prized razors, I do not have any of my direct ancestors shaving paraphernalia, so when I get a razor from someone that I know, I cherish the memory of whom it belonged to. This month is going to be a month of the NEW razor. This also includes the Goodwill razors based on the NEW design and also New Improved's. I have 9 of these styles of razors, that I will intersperse using during the month of July. Canada Day n
For this mornings shave, I used a Canadian razor and brush. The Red and Black made in Canada NEW LC set belonged to Uncle Bob, who was married to my Lady's Aunt. Thank you Aunt Betty for allowing me to continue to enjoy these fine shaving instruments. The brush was a NOS Simms boar that I picked up NIB and have been using for a couple of years, ad made excellent FAT lather. I am still trying to get the hang of the shavette, so I gave it a go on the first pass. A little better today as I did not draw blood. The remainder of the shave was uneventful as the NEW loaded with a Minora sliced smoothly over my face removing the remainder of whiskers. A little Gentleman's Pride ASB, Lucky Tiger, with a generous splash of English Leather and I am ready to go to the Canada Day parade. Have a blessed day gentlemen.

Great shave and glad to be back. I was feeling sick and went to the doctor Monday. Little did I know I would wind up in the ER and hospital until my discharge yesterday afternoon. I went in for digestive concerns and a high heart rate, and it turned out I was extremely anemic with a dangerously low hemoglobin count. I still need more tests and monitoring, but I am stabilized enough to come home.

 

Sunday morning:

L'Oreal Men Expert Facial Wash
Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
Super Speed Astra day 7
OSP Grapefruit Menthol SS
Lucky Tiger AS Cream
Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS Splash

Another non-Stirling soap which I'm keeping in my stash because I love it very much. Lots of rich lather, smells great, and has plenty of menthol as well as an excellent post-shave sensation. It's really hard to beat the Lucky Tiger for skin-friendliness - IMHO, only the Stirling balms can top it. The wife ain't too crazy about the Aqua Velva's scent but I LOVE it!
