    Good morning friends. A fine three pass shave today with the Schick E2. Marvelous lather from the Italian Barber Amici shave soap. I finished with Fine L'Orange... smooth and refreshed. Enjoy your day friends. ☺️

    Proraso Pre Shave
    Fine Snake Bite
    Jayaruh #289
    Superior Lather Catcher
    CVS Carbon Steel SE
    CWS
    Thayer's Peach WH
    Barbasol AS

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Fine Snake Bite Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #289 brush. I did two passes with the Superior Lather Catcher Razor with a CVS Carbon Steel SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Peach WH and then Barbasol AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

  7. Well I completely agree with THAT. Just on the theme of leather/ smoke alone, there are about 3 or 4. And thanks for the positive commentary. Michelle appears to be one who knows what she's talkinabout.

    Chosen an un-obtanium as my next "victim" of Titanic-Syndrome.
    Gotta say, WSO was one of the greatest small-artisan soaps EVER to be created.

    Have a great week!
  10. LOVELY! :happy096:

  14. No, I need something pretty mild. The Wilki. was too mild, and I had a two piece razor that I slipped a 1/2 de in, worked great, but was too aggressive. Right now I`m using a Gillette Guard, a single blade cartridge that is terrific. I have a OneBlade Core coming today. If it doesn`t do any better than what I have in my "Den", I`ll just sell it. Hey, thank you for the info. God Bless, Bill

    The same exact shave as yesterday. A smooth beautiful excursion into "Wet Shaveland". With 2 passes, WTG/ATG and clean ups after each pass. A cold water rinse, Kleenex test (negative on red dots). Applied afta AS. Looking at a Dolphin. Life is too good to be as short as it is. A Happy Camper here wishing for the same for all. God Bless.

    Awesome shave this morning. This razor is a mild shave and I love it. For those of us that really enjoy mild razors, you need one of these. It’s soo smooth and forgiving. I’m BBS and diggin it!
