    Using stuff up today. Finished off my tub of Proraso menthol with my Simpson T1 and polished off my Proraso after shave balm (soothing oatmeal and tea tree oil). Used ye olde German Salamander 115 razor. I prefer the Focus R28 by a WIDE margin, but still get the oldies out once in a while.

    Monday morning shave, CVH frame back made by Dannemora Gjutstål. Smile on my face, feels near to nothing when shaving with this remarkable tool. Made probably 1870-1880 .

    Torrey

    I used tools and products I haven't used in years. The Torrey is good little shaver. The Vulfix brush, on the other hand, was pretty floppy. A one pass with touchups shave.

    Saturday Straights' Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Colgate Shaving Mug Soap
    Jayaruh #434 Synthetic
    SXDGS 5/8
    CWR
    Granddad's Blend After Shave

    The Colgate Shaving Mug Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #434 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the SXDGS 5/8 Straight gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Granddad's Blend After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
