2007.11.08 Shave of the Day


Shave
Razor: Feather Artist Club DX Japanese Style Non-Folding Razor ACD-N
Razor Blades: Feather Professional Blades for Feather ACD-N
Razor: Merkur 37C Slant Bar HD Double Edged Safety Razor Chrome
Razor Blades: Panda Stainless Steel Double Edged Razor Blades
Brush: Crabtree & Evelyn Edwin Jagger Made Small Best Badger Brush
Bowl: Mitsuwa 6" Beige shallow hand thrown Japanese bowl with side rest
Shave Soap Shave Cream/Soap: Wars Shave Cream (pre shave lather)
Shave Cream/Soap: The Gentlemen's Quarter Gentleman's Oak & Moss Glycerin
Technique:WTG (Feather)/WTG (DE)/Cleanup (ATG)
Post Shave
Aftershave: Thayer's Witch Hazel Aftershave

Result: 4.5/5.0 Had to work around a slight razor bump from the other day. Switched to the Merkur Slant Bar as the cleanup razor. I'm going to start using a different DE per week in combination with a str8 or the Feather ACD-N or just by itself. I'll also start using up the blade samples and write my opinions on each. So far, the Pandas have worked well with the Progress and the Slant Bar Razors. You'll notice I didn't use talc today or a cologne. I might use some later in the day.

 

C&E BBB
54 SS with AP day 2
William's Menthol Mug Soap
Aqua Velva Classic

The William's is an old soap that lost its menthol. But it made a great lather and made for a nice shave. The soap box had $.19 printed on it with a sticker for $.15.
