Friday's ShaveCold Water Rinse Amalfi Basil Lemon Jayaruh #331 Boar Enders Speed Shaver Enders Speed Blade CWR Pinaud Vanilla My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Almalfi Basil Lemon Shave Soap face lathered well with Jayaruh #331 Boar brush. I did two passes with the Enders Speed Shaver razor with an Enders Speed Blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Pinaud Vanilla AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed... Your shaves are really encouraging me to dig out an Enders I picked up months ago and start shaving with it. I'll need to go back thru the old threads to learn how to alter a blade for it.

Tabac Thursday's ShaveCold Water Rinse Tabac Jayaruh #331 Boar Enders Speed Shaver Enders Speed Blade CWR Tabac AS My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Tabac Shave Soap face lathered well with Jayaruh #331 Boar brush. I did two passes with the Enders Speed Shaver razor with an Enders Speed 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... Great video Jim, wish you did more of them. Always relaxing to watch and i learn something every time. Now I really want an Enders after seeing the green one. On an unrelated note, I'm a fan of A shirts too and by coincidence the other day i bought 9 for 9 bucks . Have a great day!

Did I read that correctly up above? Is it Electrif’s birthday? If so, Happy Birthday Arthur.
GEM Jr Pella SS blade VDH Boar Brush Williams CVS Witch Hazel
I think I’d better look for some Treet, Blue Star, and Pal blades if I do make it to the Big Shave Southwest. Boy, time does fly. It seems like just yesterday (before TOST existed) when I was hanging out at TSD with Mighty Mouse. Back then you could go into just about any pharmacy and buy all the quality SE and injector blades you wanted; they were coming out of the woodwork! Heck, Fuzzy used to buy SE blades at the gas station! Those were the good old days.

FRIDAY SHAVE Razors: Clark’s Silver King CS Improved King Blade: Gem CS (1) Brush: TOST LE Soap: Palmolive AS: Florida Water Did a head to head. Left side Silver King, Right side Improved King Long story short. Virtually the same results. The Improved had a bit more tooth. Upon inspection there might be a slight tweak to the combs. Easily fixed but totally unnecessary. These razors are winners in my book. The Improved is actually a bit improved on the gold downs. 4 vs 2. Both are a dream to load. Tom

Fri 19th April RazoRock Syn. 24mm P & B Pall Mall ATT SE1 Schick Proline [ 3 ] Floid Vigoroso A/S Lotion True to form a mishap was due as I have had a long run of trouble free Shaves, just had to be with one of my favourites.I tried a bit too hard working ATG on the cheek/upper lip area so got the blood flowing a bit , fortunately it responded to the alum. Apart from that bit of operator error the Shave was as I expected with the ATT SE1, smooth and comfortable with a good close finish.

18/2019 MMCP Pella Stainless Blade (out of Treet and Pal) Vulfix #1 Boar Brush Williams Soap CVS Witch Hazel The brush I’ve had for 12 years and is on its last legs, however still lathers great. The bad news is I’m down to my last puck of soap. The good news is its Williams. Let me know if you need a Williams refill care package!! Great to see you posting!!
