Razor 2/6 - Gillette Aristocrat 1936 - 1937 variant
Shave 1/2 - Bic blade

First I need to preface this with the razor may not be performing to factory standards. It does have one loose door and alignment issues with one side showing a little more blade than the other. Last time I used this I shaved it with warm water and less passes, this razor was fairly aggressive then this time around it was as mild as they come with a Bic blade. It might be the water or I used the other side but the feel was totally different. It is also possible it needs to be shaved closer to the cap. The water thing I can test since the 37 - 38 Sheraton I haven't used since I switch to cold water shaving.

With that said this shave just flat outperformed the 34 - 35 Aristocrat in every area except smoothness, it wasn't smooth but mild and deadly. On the mildness it felt kind of like a Black tip Super Speed but much better shave than one.

 

lovely set up and pic sir, love that brush..

 

Thank you, Gary!
