Supply SE Saturday's Cold Water Shave
Cold Water Rinse
Archaic Alchemy Eureka Shave Soap
Jayaruh #397 2-band Badger
Supply SE Injector
Supply Black Label Blade
CWR
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
The Archaic Alchemy Eureka Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #397 2-band Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Supply SE Injector and a Supply Black Label Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

CVS Carbon First Use
Proraso Red
VDH Boar
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Old Spice
My 2nd shave with the MMCP, I tried it this time with a brand new blade, it was a totally different shave. It goes to show how a bad blade or blade at the end of its life can affect perceived aggression of a razor.
