    Continuing my march through some of my favorite injectors. This is a standout razor - the elusive Schick E1. Paired with some “dogs danglies” Dutch Schick blades it’s an incredibly smooth and close shave. Double :happy036:

    Williams Wednesday Shave

    Lather: vintage Williams mug soap
    Brush: Ever Ready with H.I.S. synthetic knot
    Razor: Henson AL13 V2 +
    Blade: Wizamet Super Iridium
    Post: Zingari Man Recovery Splash unscented

    Today I used another of my H.I.S. brushes. I extracted the 22mm knot from one of the smaller H.I.S. brushes and mounted it in a pretty green Ever Ready handle. It made an excellent lather today from the vintage Williams soap.

    I’ve been remiss in not keeping this one (and others) shiny but here’s some more pics that show what’s truly unique about this razor - the scissors style handle that opens the head and releases the pressure holding the blade between the two plates :shocked003:

    Shaving recipe for today.

    Prep: Warm shower:/ Asda Tingly Mint & Tea Tree Shower Gel.

    Pre:
    Cold wet flannel to my face.
    Pears Original Transparent Bar Soap.
    Brush: Frank Shaving 22mm Synthetic.
    Bowl Lather.
    Bowl : Home Bargains Stainless Steel Side Bowl.
    Lather: Proraso Sandalwood Shaving Cream.
    Blade: Silver Star Super Stainless. (D2)
    Frankenrazor: Muhle R41 bottom plate with Yaqi Mellon top cap + Schmidt R10 Handle.

    Post:
    Cold water face wash with brush squeezing's, Cold Water Face Rinse./Alum Rub./Cold Water Rinse. / Homemade (~Spring/Summer mix~) Lemon, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree, Essential Oils.3 Menthol Crystals Mixed Together With 200ml of Care+Witch Hazel./ P&G Old Spice Hawkridge ASL. /Baylis & Harding Amber & Sandalwood ASB.

    Greetings,

    Another wonderful comfortable shave to finish my shaving week off on a high. The Frankenrazor set up is my favourite to date. I will pair it with various other blades to see if i get the same results.

    The Proraso Sandalwood shaving cream created a nice creamy slick protective lather with only a small amount in a short space of time The residual slickness is superb leaving an excellent post-shave feel to my mature skin.

    A comfortable 2 pass + pick ups shave with no errors to report.

    Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Baylis & Harding Amber & Sandalwood ASB.

    My face is feeling smooth cool, & smelling divine. ;)

    Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen. :cool:

    Thursday morning:

    L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Junjie/Rapira day 10
    Gada Cool Mint SC
    Prep ASB
    Mennen Skin Bracer AS Splash

    This Gada Cool Mint cream is so friggin cheap - hell, I paid less than two bucks at my friend’s store and he brings it in for me whenever he goes to Lebanon. It has such a nice lemony/minty scent, just a couple of small dabs on both cheeks are enough for such awesome lather, there’s a good menthol sensation, and the postshave feeling is so soothing. The Prep and the Skin Bracer aftershave were a perfect finish. Three passes gave me a dynamite BBS shave!

    Have a great day - be well and stay safe![​IMG]
