Thursday's Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap
Jayaruh #1
Eversharp H “Hussy”
Personna Injector
CWR
Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB

The Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #1 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Eversharp H “Hussy” Razor with a Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

A wonderful shave with the Valet VC1 today, mild, comfortable and efficient enough for me.
I am not sure why, however, i get the best Williams lather from this little Vintage Vulfix. Today was no exception and i had plenty of slick, stable lather whipped up in the Pewter bowl on top of the puck, enough for a full 3 pass shave.
Excellent result.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.

I believe my Unmentionable SE technique must have improved of late, i know it can happens sometimes, i am not sure why and cannot put my finger on it?
Today i have Just had a very close comfortable shave with this Unmentionable SE from 2 passes and a touch up on the whirlpools, full of confidence and smooth from start to finish, things just seem to click.
Big smiles all around this morning.
Stay safe and enjoy your day All
