I had a very enjoyable cold water shave today. I went with two razors, an unmentionable and the TNNSER 3D using a 3rd use Meijer SS blade. Both razors performed very well. Sterling pharaohs dreamsicle on a RazoRock Bruce lathered quite well even with cold water. All in all a great shave especially with the audio feedback of these two razors.

Saturday 1st February Maseto 24mm 2BB - TOBS Organic Shaving Cream - Supply V1/Proline B - Florida Water I bought this razor some time back and just could not get a decent shave so it was relegated to the back of the SE drawer. My requirements have changed somewhat and I have been spending time perfecting my shaves with milder razors. It took the full 3 passes but today's results were excellent. I will certainly be using this one again!

Lather Catcher Sunday's ShaveCold Water Rinse CTAPT Shaving Cream Jayaruh #340 C.V. Heljestrand C.V. Heljestrand Wedge CWR Cella ASB I've been shaving with twhite 's unmentionable this week, but Sunday is for lather catchers. The CTAPT Shaving Cream face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #340 badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the C.V. Heljestrand Lather Catcher razor with a C.V. Heljestrand Wedge blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Cella ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Yesterday's and today shaves both went very well. I dis a cold water/lather shave both days. While I love the luxurious lather of a hot water shave I seem to be getting better results from the cold water. One definite advantage is the lather isn't drying out on me with the cold water shaves. Yesterday Today I love the J.A. Henkles Rapide razor. The handle is fantastic both in length and grip. And the razor shaves great. The Pal adjustable is a really good shaver and the handle is a great length for me. However the low amount of grip is a bit disappointing. I have thought about modifying the handle to add some grip.

February 2 shave setup Can you tell me anything about the razor? It looks like a Gem Junior I got a few weeks ago with a dark Grey/Black alloy handle and I don't know anything about the history of it!
