Tabac Tuesday - 9th July Jayaruh Syn. No67 Tabac soap Schick E2-Canada Schick Single - Japan [ 9 ] Tabac A/S Lotion Though I always enjoy shaving with this E2, as it shaves very smoothly. Unfortunately today it would appear that the blade is past its best and the finished Shave was below par. I shall not be buying any more of these blades which are not superior to the "Chicks" but a lot more expensive - The Tabac was nice though.

Williams Wednesday's ShaveCold Water Rinse Williams Mug Shaving Soap Jayaruh #375 Synthetic Valet VB2 Valet AutoStrop (23) CWR Dove Men+Care Post Shave Balm My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Williams Mug Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #375 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Valet VB2 razor with a Valet AutoStrop blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Dove Men+Care Post Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Wednesday 10th July Alpha T400 - Wickham 1912 Classic 24 - Pal Adjustable - Schick Proline B #2 - Alum - Blue Stratos A/S - Aloe Vera Gel - Blue Stratos EDT Debut of the beautiful Alpha T400 tribute brush. Which was a generous prize/gift from Steve @ Alpha Shaving & Brush Co. It has an Arctic Fox synthetic knot. It has a smaller diameter and very slightly higher loft compared to the Alpha Outlaw knot. Hence it has less backbone. It produced a very easy luxurious lather with the Wickhams and was a pleasure to use plus it looks great.

Williams Wednesday -10th July Simpson Chubby 1 / Maggards 2band Williams mug soap Schick B1 Schick Proline [ 4 ] Pitralon Classic A/S Lotion Besides being a very clever bit of engineering, this early Schick is a great Razor. It has great blade feel that warns you not to rush. By taking time and care you can be rewarded with the closest of Shaves, which IMHO is probably superior to any delivered by any Schick using a single blade.
