Thursday's Cold Water Shave
Cold Water Rinse
Mitchel's Wool Fat Shave Soap
Jayaruh #340 Badger
Rolls Traveler Razor
'47 Rolls Wedge
CWR
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Florida Water
The Mitchel's Wool Fat Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #340 Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the 1907 Gem Jr. Lather Catcher and a '47 Rolls Wedge Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

First shave with a newly acquired EverReady 1924 Shovel Head - WOW - that's some spicy blade feel and I like it. Two Pass with a Bit of Clean-Up was all we needed. SUPERB Shave.

Saturday Morning Scrape
Fourth shave on the VC2 and I increased the blade exposure a smidge more - brought it down in line with the blade stops a bit better - these Auto Strops take a bit of getting used to and this shave was superb. Even though they use the same blades as the ER and Gem razors, the angles a definitely different.

My First Lather Catcher SUNDAY
I picked a Carbon Steel Blade for the first time as a tribute to the original feel. WOW - what a different type of shave and feel. Against the Grain and Across was a bit of challenge but after Dry Down it ended up being a close and marvelous shave. Next time we'll try the PTFE blades.
