Menthol Monday's ShaveCold Water Wash Ingram Shaving Cream Jayaruh #270 Synthetic Ever-Ready 1924 Gem Blue Star CS SE CWR Osage Rub My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Ingram Shaving Cream face lathered well with the Jayaruh #270 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Ever-Ready 1924 Razor with a Gem Blue Star CS SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Dang ! that is a gorgeous 1924 - love these lots - I seem to get great surprises when I get a lot of dirty razors! In fact my 1924 is just like that one - but not as nice - that came with a Lot as well - with MicroMatic bakelite bullet tip, Gold 1924 with ornate handle, a near mint chrome OCMM, and a Featherweight with off white handle, gold head and gold handle tip - so all that cost like 30 bucks - ebay had it listed with 2 terrible photos and they were dity - I find the old razor caked with soap scum cleans the best - the soap scum coating acts like a protectant layer!

MONDAY’S SHAVE Razor: Star 1887 Blade: Kampfe Bros wedge Brush: Rubberset Soap: Palmolive stick AS: VIBR I was able to trim down the sides of the 3 minty blades. I honed one up. I loaded the blade and adjusted it to where I thought it should be. I proceeded with the shave. Very close shave. I was off on my setting. It was very aggressive. I did all 3 passes and will dial it back the next time around. This is a fantastic wedge lather catcher. I love the fact that you can dial it in to your liking. The old blade took a keen edge no problem. Only time will tell how it will hold an edge. Have a safe and happy week my friends.

Firstly, twhite , that is an amazing looking razor, I am awestruck! A wedge, and an adjustable wedge all at the same time! That is some serious cool! Secondly, todays shave was great, not nearly as good as the post above mine, but good in its own way. The Lather Catcher never fails me. When I need a good shave, it is there to make me look like I know what I am doing. Enjoy your day, and have great shaves!

Mon 5th November. RazorRock Plissoft 22mm OSP Bay Rum Alu. Hawk V1 & S/S Handle Schick Proline [ 5 ] Bay Rum A/S Splash- a L`Electrif [ aka Arthur @ ] Used the OSP today, and after a long break from it was impressed with the quality of the lather. Had a really good Shave with the Alu Hawk, which really works well with this S/S Handle. In many ways I enjoyed todays Shave more than that yesterday with the General.

Schick I2 razor Personna blade WD Silver Tip brush Fume SS w/added M-Bomb Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Clubman Reserve Whiskey Wood A/S
3 drops of the M-Bomb really cooled off the Fume SS, I liked it. All the other parts worked well and my face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks. Don't forget to vote!
