    Saturday Straights' Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Art*Razor Pleasure of Art Shaving Soap
    Jayaruh #220 2-band Badger
    Lee Manufacturing
    CWR
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Aqua Velva Blue Ice AS

    The Art*Razor Pleasure of Art Shaving Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #220 2-band Badger brush. I did two passes with the Lee Manufacturing 5/8 Straight, but on the touch up pass, I drew blood. I'm ok. It looks worse than it is. I ended up with a pretty good shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and Aqua Velva Blue Ice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Yes, I always wonder about the meaning of Plastic Shave. It is very good stuff. Did Glen add the scales to your TI? It is very nice.

    No, TI made a run of elm burl scales, green, red, and maybe blue. I haven’t seen them offered in some time.
