Wednesday 2nd January Jayaruh #289 - Lea Classic soap - 1907 GEM Junior LC - Treet Super CS #1 - Alum - Superdrug Sierran Breeze A/S - Dove Instant Hydration Debut of the 1907 GEM Junior was also coupled with the first use of the Treet carbon steel blade. Both obtained from our 2018 TOST Xmas PIF. The result was a very pleasant shave with a super close result. What a privilege it is to now own this unique razor.

Good to see you using a Rolls. I have been using a rather rough old set I have earlier in the week, the blade seems good and I find it pretty smooth though not as sharp as a modern blade.

I think they can get just as if not more sharp than a normal blade just need the right honing I've found the stone in the set very fine it took about 500 passes with the factory stone to get mine in shave shape plus stropping also I found mine local which is kinda cool who knows how long it's lived the area

Wed 2nd Jan- Williams Wednesday Jayaruh No67 Williams Mug Soap Supply SE-V1 + V2 No3 Plate Schick -Chinese [ 2 ] Wiliams Aqua Velva A/S Lotion My Second Shave of 2019 with the Supply, out to an Indoor Meet yesterday and staying away from Home. Have started to use Chicks in the Supply, they load very easily into the modded Razor without any problems.The shave was smooth and the finished shave quality was good , though I suspect that the Personna blade is just as good.

For me, Personna blades are working much better then Chicks in Supply. Of course, the Proline are the best in it.

Tabac Thursday's ShaveCold Water Wash Tabac Shaving Soap Jayaruh #330 Bunny V3 Injector Schick Proline B20 CWR Tabac AS My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Tabac Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #330 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...
