    Saturday Straights' Cold Water Shave


    Cold Water Rinse
    Palmolive Shaving Cream
    Jayaruh #41 2-band Badger
    Joseph Elliot 6/8 Wedge
    CWR
    Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB

    The Palmolive Shaving Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #41 2-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Joseph Elliot 6/8 Wedge straight gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    A wonderful bbs Saturday morning shave! Fon goldenstar wedge is a effortless shaver , paired up with Murphy & McNeil's tobac fanaile only heightened the experience further. If your in the market for a new soap I highly highly recommend M&M , they have some of the best soaps on the market and the post shave feel is heavenly. Compress_20240203_084916_6023.jpg

    Thank you, Scott.
    This is an early blade from Charlie Lewis. I want to say he started making razors in 2008, originally playing with a frame back design.

    I don’t believe he made many framebacks, but this is a 2010 blade housed in white micarta scales. The tang/thumb notch design sets this one apart, imo.

    I met Charles Lewis and another razor maker in Asheville, North Carolina at a straight razor convention we set up. I didn't see any framebacks, just beautiful and exotic designs.
