I know, i know, its supposed to be Blackland month!
I had refreshed a few of my Unmentionable SE's yesterday and just could not wait to give a couple of them a try, therefore, 2 were chosen to assist the Vector today by completing the WTG pass 1 razor per side, then finish off as usual with the Vector, simple.
A leisurely face lather today to prep the stubble, really nice to just enjoy building the lather and working it into the stubble, i built up a very slick, loose and creamy covering.
The Unmentionables were finished on different stones and are different styles, to be honest i do not think i am experienced enough to tell the differences between the edges, i just know they both work very well for me, very happy with that!
Anyway i completed a XTG then an ATG pass with the wonderful Vector fitted with the very forgiving Schick, still giving plenty of feedback through the razor and leaving me super comfortable and BBS.
Stay safe and enjoy your day All

You fellas make shaving complicated! Wink
Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.

Lather Catcher Sunday's Shave
[Image: zcws.jpg]

Cold Water Rinse
Proraso Red Shave Soap
Jayaruh #277
1902 Kampfe Brothers/Star Lather Catcher
Star Wedge
CWR
Pinaud Citrus Musk EDC

The Proraso Red Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #277 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the 1902 Kampfe Brothers/Star Lather Catcher with a Star Wedge Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Citrus Musk EDC. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Superior safety razor, new gem blue star, speick soap, star jelly aftershave and real tree American trail edt. The American trail I've heard called a spice bomb clone. Can't confirm or deny that been a while since I've smelled spice bomb. It goes very well with the speick though. If you come across the real tree edt gift set buy it they very good for about 4 bucks each.

I had an excellent shave with this re-handled Shcick today. Really glad to have it in my collection. Thanks again @meyer57619 for sending me the razor head.

I am horrible with taking pictures.
Razor: Schlick Repeater Injector (Can’t remember type, flat safety bar)
Blade: Chinese Schick
Soap: Proraso Green
Brush: Cremo Horse Brush
A/S: Witch hazel with menthol

Been a while since I’ve used an injector. Almost forgot how smooth a shave they give. Back to being a smooth bald headed type. Win win.

Razor: Vintage 7 O'Clock Single Edge Razor
Blade: Gem (3)
Brush: Paladin 26mm Vesuvius Chief
Soap: Hub City Morning Hike
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: CFG Ghost Town Barber
Fragrance: Scuderia Ferrari Black
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 964

Drama free shave with the 7 O'Clock Single Edge today. Mild with the Gem blade which is 1mm narrower than the original blade making it mild but still effective and a VERY nice shave, just shy of my normally glass smooth goal. VERY happy with having this piece of history in the den. 1911/12 Patent date thought to be used in 1915 so that's my guess for the razor date as far as I can read. Have a great Monday Folks !!
