Tabac Tuesday's  Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #434 Synthetic
Unmentionable Razor
Unmentionable Blade
CWR
Tabac AS

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #434 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Unmentionable Razor and an Unmentionable blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac  AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Wednesday Morning Whisker Walkabout

This was a decent shave but not as efficient or smooth as I would like.  Dried down to a nice result.
I think I may replace the blade to see if that may be part of the issue.

Very similar Wester Brothers razor. That's probably the only other one I've seen.

Redemption Shave

Maybe I can get my Days correct this morning as I called yesterday as Wednesday.  
Whatever - I'm old and the brain doesn't always hit on eight cylinders.
Changed the blade today to a Hill's (East Coast Dept. Store) branded Platinum Chrome.
Got these on EBay at a good price and I figured they were re-branded Personna.
What a HUGE difference.  Fantastic shave at last.

I got that razor maybe 10 years ago now from a member at Tost - Hoosier Trooper. He wasn’t quite clicking on this razor at the time so he sold it up to me. I think he might have regretted it later. But it has always been in my top five ever since. Comes with a case as well. A really excellent shaver (sorry HT).
