Supply SE Saturday's Cold Water Shave
Cold Water Rinse
La Toja Shave Stick
Jayaruh #188
Supply SE Injector
Supply Black Label Blade
CWR
Lucky Tiger After Shave
The La Toja Shave Stick lathered well with the Jayaruh #188 synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Supply SE Injector and the Supply Black Label Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lucky Tiger After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Today I went with my Frankensteined Gem Micromatic flying wing/Clog-pruf peerless. This razor is a fun one. I made it from rescued parts from several broken razors. The guard bar is worn quite a bit and it seems a bit more aggressive than my regular Clog-pruf peerless.

I want to know what parts and what several broken donor razors make up your Frankensteined Gem Micromatic.
