22 January 2013
Razor: Cobra Classic + Feather Professional (12) Brush: E7 Scarlett + WSP HMW 23/50 Soap: Martin de Candre - Savon à Raser (14) AS: Krampert's Finest menthol
Missed a couple shaves due to my wife being ill but I learned this morning just how easily the Cobra/Feather combo clears 3 days worth of growth. On its 12 use this blade is still super sharp and very smooth; quite forgiving actually.

Monday 1/21
Razor: Ever Ready 1914 Blade: GEM stainless Brush: Semogue 1305 Lather: L'Occitane Cade soap Post: Alum, Krampert's Finest, Unrefined Shea Butter
Results: Good, but surprisingly not great, shave. I took this blade one shave too far. Still love the 1914! DFS.

Greetings Wednesday 23rd January 2013 Prep: Shower Razor: GEM Micromatic OC Blade: GEM Stainless Coated Brush: Semogue 620 Boar Soap: Lea grated into a container Aftershave: King of Shaves Balm Great shave, but I would expect nothing less from what is, (in my personal opinion) one of, if not the finest shaving safety razors ever made. Regards Dick.

Wednesday 1/23 Razor: GEM Micromatic Bullet-tip Blade: GEM stainless Brush: VDH Pure Badger Lather: Palmolive shave stick Post: Alum, Witch Hazel, Clarins Soother Results: Great BBS shave. More touch-up than usual on my trouble spots, but I got there eventually. I'll chalk that up to a streak of non-SE shaves getting me off my touch.

Gem Cutlery Damaskeene Gem SS/PFTE Blade (3) Made-Rite 500PB Brush Arko Shave Stick Pinaud Clubman AS
The Dammy never lets me down! I had a fantastic shave this morning - just as I knew I would. I'm looking forward to the shave with my Junior tomorrow morning. It's become my second favorite razor among those in my collection.

23 January 2013Razor: Cobra Classic + Feather Professional (14) Brush: s havemac TSN '13 Ebony D01 Extra Silver Tip 003/100 Soap: Martin de Candre - Savon à Raser (16)AS: Krampert's Finest Menthol
I've now matched my # of shaves from the first Feather Pro I used. So that's now 28 shaves with the Cobra on just 2 blades. Not too shabby. Especially considering the first blade could have gone longer and this blade will be going longer. Can I reach 20?
