..For the 1st time in a long time , I'm at a loss for words to describe this shave. After 2 1/2 days of suffering migraine and flu I mowed down the hair and reclaimed my real estate. My first time using a 1914 but wont be my last. Borrowed the handle from the 1912 but gf's Dad and I are going to fire up his lathe and make a new one. I feel like a Champion after that shave! Sometimes a great shave goes a long way toward lifting your spirits. It really picked me up tonight Aaron.

For the last 2 days as soon as I woke up I had to rush to work. Called in with no notice. Because of that I have not shaved in a few days. I had to fix that tonight. Broke out my travel kit and took a 15min bathroom break. Great shave came around! I gotta remember to pack witch hazel. Gem Jr 1912 (G3) Treet Williams Omega travel brush Aqua Velva Ice Blue. There is a video. I will upload when I get on wifi!! Plastic or steel handle? Bakelite

Wed 20th Feb. Simpson Chubby 1 / Maggards 2 Band Speick Active ES Claymore V1 & Bulldog 11 Handle Schick Proline [ 9 ] Pitralon Original A/S Lotion Coming after an Injector rotation I used the Claymore with the Ikon Handle for the First Time.This handle is shorter and lighter than the original but feel good in the hand. Provided that you utilise the weight of these heavyweights with no undue pressure they provide smooth and comfortable Shaves, with a good quality finish. Today was no exception even with a blade on its 9th outing.

Tabac Thursday's Shave Cold Water Wash Tabac Shaving Soap Jayaruh #339 Boar Damaskeene OC Gem Glue Star SE CWR Tabac AS My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Tabac Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #339 Boar brush. I did two passes with the Damaskeene OC razor with a Gem Glue Star SE 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...

Thur 21st Feb. Jayaruh No 67 Syn. P & B Spitfire ATT SE1 & Windrose Handle Schick Proline [ 11 ] P & B Spitfire A/S Splash Of the modern SE Razors that I have the ATT SE1 has to be my favourite as it delivers a smooth comfortable Shave every time. I have a relatively strong growth and need to Shave daily, I can use the ATT SE1 as a daily shaver, knowing that the Shave will be trouble free with a top notch finish.
