Menthol Monday's ShaveThe AutoStrop Challenge ContinuesCold Water Rinse Ingram Shave Cream Tom's 3D Printed Brush Valet VC2 Valet AutoStrop (26) Enders Speed Shaver Schick Proline Osage Rub My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Ingram Shave Cream face lathered well with Tom's 3D Printed Brush. I did two passes with the Valet VC2 razor with a Valet AutoStrop SE blade. It appears that this blade has lost its edge. I switched to my Enders Speed Shaver with a Schick Proline blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Tabac Tuesday's ShaveCold Water Rinse Tabac Shaving Soap Tom's 3D Printed Brush Valet VC4 Valet AutoStrop (27) Enders Speed Shaver Personna Injector CWR Tabac AS My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Tabac Shaving Soap face lathered well with Tom's 3D Printed Brush. I did one pass with the Valet VC4 razor with a Valet AutoStrop SE blade with poor results. I switched over to my Enders Speed Shaver with a Personna blade and ended with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed... The AutoStrop Challenge has ended for me with 27 shaves; the last two of which needed an assist. I will be continuing with the Enders for the next three shaves. The AutoStrop Challenge was fun and interesting, but it was beginning to get old. I am glad to finish the challenge. Moving on...

You are doing well, my friend. I called it quits today. The last two shaves were not good ones. I had to finish off with my Enders. However, it was a fun challenge. Twenty-five pretty good shaves from one blade is still an acceptable run, although starting to get boring. I am glad to move on.

Doing a month of Williams. Day 28 I saw the AV Ice Sport in the grocery store for under $4 and it jumped right into the cart. Back to a Kai blade. Now I get the same shave with this blade or the Feather. This one has a bit more face feel and will irritate my skin easier, but with care they are the same shave. No irritation today, just a really nice shave and some new aftershave. Razor - Hawk V2 Blade - Kai Pink Soap - Williams Brush - Cremo / Vie Long Horse Hair AS - AV Ice Sport
