Menthol Monday's Shave I am ending the year and beginning the New Year with Tom White's Bunny V3. Happy New Year, Y'all.
Cold Water Wash Eskimo Tuxedo Jayaruh #336 Bunny V3 Injector Schick Proline B20 CWR Osage Rub It turns out that Tom's Bunny V3 was one of my most used razors of 2018. It is such a great shaver. Thanks twhite . My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Eskimo Tuxedo Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #336 brush. I did two passes with the Bunny V3 Injector Razor with the NOTSO guard and a Schick Proline B20 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...

Star 1912 style razor Gem Stainless blade Maison Lambert Silver Tip brush VeraSoapCo Peppermint SS Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Colorado Sage cologne
Last shave of 2018 and I am resuming my SE journey after being sidetracked by the arrival of the Supply injector, I chose this set up because it has always worked well in the past. Can't say that for all my SE's but this one is good. Got a nice comfortable close shave and my face is doing great. Now go enjoy your day folks.

For my shave I used my recently purchased rolls razor. The cream and aftershave balm were prorasso green. I used my paa scuttle the older version not the moonscape and a synthetic brush. I always use distilled water from a spray bottle. It makes it easier to add water and control the water and soap ratio. Makes my shaves more consistent. I did one pass with and one against grain. I do not typically go against the grain in the mustache area. I got a bbs shave with no irritation.

The same size, or a smaller one? Also, I am going to move this post into the current SOTD thread.

I'm having fun with my rolls razor. It does have a couple little issues nothing that causes a problem. I got it complete at the antique store two days ago with an intact sharpening stone. It was not shave worthy at first. I used the built in stone and strop to get it into shape. It started off tuggy and didn't want to cut against the grain. A few hundred passes on its stone along with a few hundred on it's strop and now it shaves kinda like a lord de blade not bad. Giving bbs shaves and getting better all the time.

That's awesome that you found one completely intact. As I hear it, most times the stone gets broken first. I have never used one, but have had an interest in them for a while. Do you have any pictures of the products used? We love photos around here.
