Greetings Tuesday 26th February 2013 Prep: Shower Razor: Ever Ready 1914 Little Lather Catcher Blade: GEM Stainless Coated Brush: Semogue 620 Boar Soap: Wilkinson Sword Stick grated into a container Aftershave: Adidas Balm A really good shave, the Adidas Balm works well enough, but has a 70's washroom smell, the scent is however, so transient that it has completely gone by the time you are dressed! Regards Dick

Shick E2 Williams & Lab Series Shave Cream SuperCombo Personna PTFE (1) Blade OMEGA Mighty Midget Brush Old Spice AS
The E2 definitely has more horsepower than any of my other injectors,I shaved well with it at a very shallow angle but was in a hurry,got careless trimming around my goatee and got bit a couple of times before I knew what hit me.

Gem Feather Weight Gem SS/PFTE Blade (10) Made-Rite 500PB Brush KMF Cool Mint Cream Pinaud Clubman AS
My shave with the Damaskeene yesterday was so close that I only required a single pass with touch-up this morning. The FW handled that quite nicely.

Greetings Thursday 28th February 2013 Prep: Shower Razor: GEM Pushbutton Blade: GEM Blue Star Carbon Brush: Semogue OC Boar Cream: La Toja Sensitive Aftershave: Nivea Sensitive Balm Another try with the carbon blades and this time a very nice shave indeed and absolutely zero tenderness which was my complaint when I first tried them a couple of weeks ago. Judgement is reserved pending further shaves! This time I did palm strop this new blade first, but I never really know if this achieves much. Regards Dick.
