Thursday Morning Shave Resolution

I just cannot give up on this freaking Enders.  I cut down an unmentionable blade (Subie Method) 
and fitted it into the Enders.  SUCCESS!!  It was easier to fiddle with than the Injector blade I was trying.  And who cares if you waste a bunch of unmentionables.  On a side note, there's nothing better than a good shave stick and this Green Label does the job.  Plenty of lather from one application to go three passes and a face wash.

Enders Safety Razor
Unmentionable Blade (Modified to an SE)
Razorock Green Shave Stick
PAA Atomic Rocket
BRUT Splash On
MSC Vintage Lapidus Aftershave

The Derby Shave Stick lathered well with the Jayaruh #71 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Ever-Ready 1924 Razor and a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Duru Cologne. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Fiasco meaning it was a quick shave.  And it rhymed  LOL   Had an early eye appointment this morning.  Macular Degeneration but under control via injection.  My Dad used to tell me " Son, don't get old"  LOL

Saturday Morning Tonsure Celebration

Back to an old favorite which was one of my first Valet razors.  After seven shaves, the GEM blade is still smooth & efficient as ever. Just a great shave !!  Roma brush is new to me and it's just a BANGER.
