SOTD - SEptember 2025 - Jayaruh - 08-30-2025
I will be posting here during SEptember. with a different razor each days. Apologies to the many other single edge razors that did not make the cut. I should not be making any unmentionable mistakes this month. Let's see who else may be posting this month. Here is the line up for the first week.

Menthol Monday's Cold Water Shave
Cold Water Rinse
TSD Iced Lemongrass Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #1 Silvertip Badger
AutoStrop A1
Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade
CWR
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Mennen Skin Bracer AS
It is Single Edged SEptember, and I will be using a different single edge razor for the thirty days of SEptember.
The TSD Iced Lemongrass Shaving Soap was face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #1 Silvertip Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the AutoStrop A1 and the Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Mennen Skin Bracer AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

SEptember!! I am rather inspired by Jayaruh’s choices and thought I would jump on board where I’m able. I don’t have an Auto Strop A but I can do a B. I chose a Feather SE Haney blade as for me it is a great shave in a B1. Some Italian soap, a Canadian Rubberset boar and away we go!

Very cool Auto Strop. It looks like new. Thanks for posting.

SEptember!! I can jump on board today as well! (When I can’t match Jayaruh I will repeat the shave of the day before.)
The 1914 was darn near my first SE and for sure one of my favourites. I have a trusty beat up 1st gen I have used for many years, but today to celebrate SEptember I am going to use a Canadian manufactured Ever Ready Safety Razor co. Ltd. 1914 model manufactured in Toronto. There aren’t many of these kicking around so I look forward to the shave! I will use a new PTFE GEM and the same Rubberset as yesterday, but I swapped in a mug of old Williams in honor of the American roots of the ER design and the founder of TOST, our very own Fuzzy Wchnu. Happy shaves!
And it almost hit frost here last night, so HOT Water!!! And as per the instructions, I will shave with JOY!

That is a very nice setup you have there. I find it hard to open my ER 1914. They have very strong springs. I love that box of Radio Blades you have. Those first SE blades did not have any cutouts in them. The ER has those little blade holders to prevent the blade from falling out during loading and unloading. Modern SE's with cutouts tend to fall out. I just put some Scotch tape over the cut outs and the problem is solved. SEptember is going to be fun. I am going to use my ER 1924 tomorrow.
