Wednesday Morning Whisker Whittle

Fairly quick shave with some Proraso Cream and a fantastic Frank Shaving G5 brush.
Fifth use on the Gillette banded blade and it's holding up well.

I was surprised at the quality of shave I got with my Techmatic. It is a very good razor.

Thank you - watched your video on it last week.  I have a bunch more heads that came with it so it will keep me going for a while.  Another razor that just blew me away was the Wilkinson Sword Bonded from the 70's.  Very firm and heavy SE blade encased in a plastic bonding.  Shaves like an Injector.  Thanks for the shout out.

I got one of those Wilkinson Sword Bonded razors in 1972 I think. I got rid of it when I cut a chunk out of my left temple area with a blade that misaligned in the plastic. It was a new blade and the first stroke of my shave. Ouch. End of story for the Wilkinson Sword Bonded razor.
