RE: SOTD - November 2021 - Dave in KY - 11-22-2021 Monday November 22, 2021 Razor: Ronson Blade: Injector Brush: Trotter Handcraft Ida/Maggards 2 Band Badger Soap: Test Soap AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70 AS 2: n/a Fragrance: n/a Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1,111 ****SPOILER ALERT to Soap Testers**** Today I decided to use just one of the soaps as I would normally. They are the same except for 1 with Lanolin and 1 with Shea Butter. Not sure which I had but to me, they were nearly if not identical in yesterday's shave that I don't think it would matter. Had a great shave and went with a low structure lather that was wet and SLICK. Post shave feel with nothing is VERY nice, soft and supple ! I will try again tomorrow with this method of loading the brush but again with a synthetic and see if I can get a thicker structure while maintaining hydration and slickness. The Ronson was a great close shave now that I feel it afterwards. I think the injector blade may not be my favorite that I had loaded in it and will need to try another shave with my preferred Injector blade. I don't care for the shave angle it requires to hold the razor at but you can't complain with results like I received.....................................YES I can GREAT shave but I would take either of my Shake Sharps over the Ronson ANY day. Still a cool piece of history built to last multiple lifetimes. Have a great day everyone !!RE: SOTD - November 2021 - Jayaruh - 11-22-2021 ![]() Menthol Monday's Shave ![]() Cold Water Rinse TSD Iced Lemongrass Shaving Soap Jayaruh 287 Synthetic Darwin-Stoll Jr. 3D Personna GEM SS PTFE CWR Osage Rub Day 22 of 3D Printed Razor Month The TSD Iced Lemongrass Shaving Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh 287 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Darwin-Stoll Jr. 3D Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed... RE: SOTD - November 2021 - Twelvefret - 11-22-2021 1930's Unmentionable/Atomic Rocket brush, Chiseled Face soap and AS. Did you know Aldous Huxley and C.S. Lewis died today in 1963, but their deaths was overshadowed by a horrible event that same day in Dallas, Texas?

I will watch your video later this evening and get the play-by-play comments. Funny, I don't notice the angle that much, but I don't shave my chin and I use the moustache razor to trim the fur under my nose. The wife doesn't like the moustache to grow up to my nostrils! ? |
