Thursday 20th June Alpha 'Outlaw' - OSP Lavender - PAL Injectomatic - Personna Stainless #2 - Alum - Speick A/S - Dove Nourishing Cream Is that your new British "Schick Buster"? And if yes -- how'd did you like it? I like it very much. It feels as safe as my G1. I was also pleased with the close smooth result today with the Personna blade. I'm definitely going to take it on my vacation next month, maybe with some Prolines.

Excellent -- and great idea, I took mine on a road trip not long after having it and found it to be a great traveler.

Thur 20th June Cyril Salter / Maseto ED. 2Band P & B Spitfire Occams V2- No2 plate Feather Pro [ 2 ] P & B Spitfire A/S Splash A second Shave with the Occams, using the skeletal handle is not a problem as I have used so many Razors of different Shapes and lengths.The Shave again is very smooth and I encountered no problems getting an ultra close all round Shave. I am quite surprised at the quality of finish that it delivers on the medium aggressive plate,and must try out a No3 plate which apparently should not be used with the Feather Pro, use of a pro -guard is suggested !!

Friday's ShaveCold Water Rinse Amalfi Basil Lemon Jayaruh #367 Badger/Boar AutoStrop B1 Valet AutoStrop (10) CWR Pinaud Lilac Vegetal My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Vintage Life Amalfi Basil Lemon Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #367 Badger/Boar brush. I did two passes with the AutoStrop B1 razor with a Valet AutoStrop blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Pinaud Lilac Vegetal AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Fri 21st June The Grosvenor [ 404 ] - mixed Vitos Super Red Occams SE- V2 / Plate 2 Feather Pro [ 3 ] Jaguar Prestige A/S Lotion My Third outing with the Occams and by a long way the best. Aided by the creamy Vitos lather the finish attained is rather a "Face Stroker", not that the first two were rather good. It would seem that my purchase of this quirky Razor may well be justified by its performance , it may lack the kerb appeal of others but IMHO it functions a lot better than some of its counterparts. Hard to believe that I am only using it on a medium aggressive plate.
