Monday 24th September 2012 Prep: Shower Razor: Micromatic OC Blade: GEM Stainless Coated Brush: Omega 10810 Boar Soap: Cella Aftershave: RSC Balm
Wonderful shave, second use of this blade, which to my mind is the best shave of all from these blades, although they do seem to give me five shaves.
Regards Dick.

This AS seems quite interesting and you seem to be enjoying it. You have piqued my interest on it! (didn't know I remembered that word!!) I got it for $7 for the 450cc bottle at a local international supermarket. There are a number of places that sell it: amazon, tulumba, etc. It has an intensely lemony scent that dries down to a more of a lemon/floral odor. It's a very refreshing splash and I really like the scent.

Been awhile since I post in this thread but I am really excited with the shave I got today.
- Prep: Hot shower and towel
- Brush: ER 89 Boar
- Soap: TSD Aqua di Gio
- Razor: '48 Eversharp-Schick G1 Injector
- Blade: Ted Pella PTFE coated injector (shave 4)
- A/S: Thayer's Rose Petal Witch Hazel Toner & Clubman Club Complete ASB
- Result: A wonderful BBS shave without any buffing. Been quite awhile since I got such a shave with only three passes.

Wonderful shave, I always carry out a three pass shave, but out of all my razors, if I was obliged to do a single pass shave with no touching up I do believe this razor (in my opinion) would give the closest/smoothest result.
Regards Dick.
