FlintstoneNot to worry, I checked the rule book. Rule 12.1 new gear on Wednesday If one possesses/discovers newly acquired or newly found gear, one may forgo Williams Wednesday so long as the next available shave is with Williams. It was added to the rule book, one for he special rules from the "Calvin ball" rulings series. You're welcome.

I did my 30 strops with my A1, but my OC Damaskeene was catching the light and looked like it was "winking" at me. I was like 'in a trance", as I reached for the excited Dammy....But.....whats this? My hand just picked up my Schick Simplified Automatic, and started shaving like that was the plan! I have no idea....But I do know.. I got one perfect 2 Pass, 1 Fuzzy W-H clean-up, BBS! Absolutely Perfect! Sometimes I forget I was born and raised in a Schick House!!😜 Everyone stand up and smile for the SOTD shot!

Wed 26th June The Grosvenor [ 404 ] mixed Williams Mug Soap Occams SE-V2 / Plate No2 Feather Pro [ 8 ] Williams Aqua Velva A/S Lotion Only 8 Shaves in and should be just getting to know a new Razor, but I feel quite at home with the Occams. Despite its quirky handle, I find it very easy to use, and I am getting trouble free quality Shaves. Maybe not to everyones taste, but as a Functional Razor it works well for me.

TOST Thursday's ShaveCold Water Rinse Morning TOST Jayaruh #369 Synthetic Valet AutoStrop VB1 Valet AutoStrop (14) CWR Pinaud Clubman This is my fourteenth shave with this blade. My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Morning TOST Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #369 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Valet AutoStrop VB1 razor with a Valet AutoStrop blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Pinaud Clubman AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Thur 27th June RazoRock Syn. 24mm P & B Pall Mall Occams SE-V2 / No2 plate Schick Proline [ 1 ] Floid Vigoroso A/S Lotion For my 9th consecutive Shave with the Occams I felt a blade change was needed. I removed / inserted a Schick blade by hand and found it very easy, much quicker than with other AC/SE Razors. The Shave was smooth and comfortable as the blade is more forgiving than the FP, but the the finish was not as close either. However, the finish was more than satisfactory as after a few very close Shaves with a FP on board, I experienced some discomfort.
