Heavy Metal Tuesday

Schick Type B is a very solid Razor.  Very different angle to the more modern Injectors and that took about a pass to get used to.  Vintage Gillette Platinum Plus blades were BANGER.  Myrsol Metilsol rounded out this Heavy Metal shave.

Wednesday Morning Walkabout

Just love the GEM Junior razor.  This was a GEM Stainless blade not PTFE and you could tell the difference right away.  Sharper face feel and not as smooth.  I kind of liked it.  
First use of my new Varon Dandy aftershave and what a BANGER !!

I don't know the name of this razor. I'll have to do some digging. What I do know is that it's a really cool razor. It is almost impossible to get the shave angle wrong. It has a good weight to it and it's got an interesting and effective way of holding the blade. I used a Feather FHS blade in it because it was convenient. They aren't my favorite blades, however the shave was quite good. I'll try a de-spined Gem blade next.
