Fri 24th Aug RazoRock Plissoft 22mm Cyril Salter Solid soap ATT SE-G , modified plate Gem S/S [ 2 ] Jaguar Prestige A/S Lotion Today I was going to have a back to back shave with an ATT SE-G with a modified base plate. The Shave yesterday proved that Paul blademonkey had done a terrific job and the Razor now worked well for me. Obviously on what really was a first outing I had not pushed it to get a top notch finish, and as no problems decided a follow up Shave was in order. With a great Lather the Shave was very smooth and comfortable, and by not rushing and taking care the finish was "Face Strokingly" good. In fact I would say the finish was as good as those I get with my favourite ER SE Razors. The downside I have realised is that the blade loading process is rather fussy compared with the ease of loading Vintage SE Razors. I rather suspect that others have found that the ATT SE-G supplied to them does not function that well, and having spent a lot of money are rather reticent about making their views known. I shall despite the loading issue have a few more Shaves with this modified Razor as it shaves so well.

Pre: Warm water face wash Brush: Omega 11137 Boar Soap: Mitchell's Schafmilch Razor: Colonial General Brass Blade: Feather Pro Super Post: Warm then cold water rinse, Myrsol F./Extra ASLAfter reading @mntnman62's comments about mixing MWF with Haslinger and who'd have thought two excellent soaps would produce another excellent soap. I still prefer MWF but having another soap doesn't hurt. Have a great weekend.

Sat 25th Aug Omega 11137 boar Lea Classic soap ATT SE- G Gem S/S [ 3] Lea Classic A/S Lotion My 3rd Consecutive Shave in with this Razor that has been tweaked by a Shaving buddy. Am pleased to say it now works and without effort delivers good quality Shaves. Today I did not push for Ultra close, just spent enough time shaving to get a more than satisfactory close all round finish. It really is in its modded form proving to be an excellent Daily Shaver , a shame that the blade changing process is too fiddly .

SE Sunday's ShaveCold Water Wash Colgate Shaving Mug Soap Jayaruh #312 Gem 1907 Lather Catcher Original Gem Cutlery SE CWR Florida Water My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Colgate Shaving Mug Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #312 brush. I did two passes with the Gem 1907 Lather Catcher Razor with an Original Gem Cutlery SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Sun 26th Aug RazoRock Plissoft 24mm P & B Spitfire ATT SE-G-- Modded base plate Gem S/S [ 4 ] Tuff Red A/S Lotion Thanks to the work done on the base plate I m now on my Fourth consecutive Shave with the ATT SE-G. I am now getting extremely good Shaves, not only smooth and comfortable but pleasingly close all round.Though I have to send the base plate back to Paul, he is going to sort my own out, so that I will have a Razor that works as originally intended by the manufacturer.
