RE: SOTD - February 2024 - Jayaruh - 02-15-2024 ![]() Thursday's Cold Water Shave Cold Water Rinse Archaic Eureka Shave Soap Jayaruh #30 Silvertip Badger King Cobra AC Razor Feather Professional Dickinson's Lemongrass Witch Hazel The Archaic Eureka Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #30 Silvertip Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the King Cobra AC Razor and a Feather Professional Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Lemongrass Witch Hazel. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed... RE: SOTD - February 2024 - Anchovie666 - 02-15-2024 Thursday Morning Shave Brouhaha Fourth shave on the Feather Blade and it was fine. I've read these don't last long or are rough but I haven't found that to be the case so far. Not as smooth as a GEM PTFE but few blades are. Ever-Ready Pure Badger was a BANGER.

A little dab of Proraso on a vintage Boar produced enough lather for two passes and a face wash. Overall great result.

After the shave I increased the blade exposure by about a quarter turn (you don't need much on the Empire) to give a bit more blade feel on future uses. I really love the little Made-Rite boar. It is so velvety soft but did need to go back to the puck a few swirls between passes.
