Wed 27th Sept RazoRock Plissoft 22mm L`Occitane Cade soap Gem Micromatic- Flying Wing Gem S/S [ 4 ] Pitralon Polar A/S Lotion Today I used my minty Flying Wing which I find rather on the mild side.It Shaves very smoothly and whilst I enjoyed the Shave and the finish was satisfactory, it was not as close as those attained with the Original Micromatic. However it is still a great Razor, and would make an ideal Daily Shaver for those with less heavy beard growth.

Tabac Thursday's ShaveCold Water Wash Tabac Shave Soap Jayaruh #319 Bunny V3 Injector Schick Proline B20 Blade CWR Tabac AS My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Tabac Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #319 brush. I did two passes with the Bunny V3 Injector Razor with a Schick Proline B20 Blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Good Morning Gents! This was last night's shave. It has been a long time since I did a Williams Wednesday. I recently got a SEMOGUE SOC Badger/Boar Mix & it was first time i took it to the Modern WIlliams puck - Just amazing - this brush is so great, really is my Cadillac Shave brush... got it on sale at WCS with free shipping, under 70 dollars- but I wont believe a 400 dollar simpson brush could be better - sure the knots are huge but u really don't need a monster knot - this knot is JAMMED packed!
Awesome looking setup. Welcome back to the Williams!!!

Always forget to grab a pic but didn't help that my phone needed to update. But...
Razor: MM (OC) Blade: Blue Star Carbon (4th use) Brush: Cremo brand horse Cream: Vereilo Cream (Sponsered by Fuzzy, ty!) A/S: Bug Beard Alum followed by Nivea Sensitive Mentholated
Had a great three pass head shave. Think the blade has about had it. But still reached DFS territory. Only went WTG 1x, XTG 2x. Never go ATG anymore.

Thur 27th Sept. Vulfix 404 mixed Tabac stick Ever Ready / Gem Push button Gem S/S [ 5 ] Tabac A/S Lotion This collaboration between ER/Gem has not had much use in the past. However, after todays Shave that may well change as the Shave was rather good. The Shave was very smooth but there was still a nice degree of blade feel which allowed one to determine which areas needed a bit more work to get a close finish. I am quite astonished at the quality of the finished Shave considering the age of the blade, and feel sure theTabac played its part.

1st use of a horse hair brush (Thanks ordinaryshaver) and I found it a bit scritchy but easily made a fine lather. All the other parts liked each other and my face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

Friday 28th September RazoRock Plissoft - Speick soap (grated) - GEM Junior (baton handle) - GEM S/S Coated #3 - Alum - Speick A/S - Dove Instant Hydration cream The baton handle may look unwieldy to some. In fact when I first saw it I thought it looked weird. Boy, I was so wrong. It is wonderful to shave with. Comfortable and easy to manoeuvre round the face. Plus it gave me an excellent result today.
