Friday's Shave
[Image: zcws.jpg]

Cold Water Rinse
Proraso Sandalwood
Jayaruh 414 Silvertip
Unmentionable Razor
Unmentionable Blade
CWR
Granddad's Blend AS

The Proraso Sandalwood lathered well with the Jayaruh 414 Silvertip Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Unmentionable Razor with an Unmentionable Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Granddad's Blend AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I'm not a fan of carbon blades but didn't want to waste one either. So I shaved with it. The shave went quite well. However for the next shave I will load an SS PTFE. Williams on the Zenith Boar whipped up wonderfully again and I finished things off with a splash of Aqua Velva.

SHIMMMMMMMMMM!!!!! BLAH.

I'm guessing you don't like my comment on the carbon blade?

My Southern Brother! Big Grin

Correction Corner...currently 72 with a projected high of 73. It's days like today that make up for our dog days of summer when it's 95 with high humidity! I fully expect our Central Maine contingent to rub it in on those days! Thumbsup

I've got my bikini on. Neighbors are forming a protest...LOL!!

I'll be right over, but only if you put some clothes on. After all, we are in the South and must conduct ourselves with a modicum of decorum! Rolleyes

DecemBoar 3

Brush: TGN knot in Cascadia Line
Razor: Schick Type G
Blade: sChick (10)
Soap: Stirling Sheep

   

Today, the Type G was used. Wow! It is probably just a whisker behind the Type I for me, but it was fantastic. So much so that it may get Ground Hogged tomorrow! And this morning was the TGN 27mm in the Trotter Cascadia Line. This is a taller knot, and exhibits floppiness, which I like. But what a lather eater! I had to reload between passes. It was well worth it, and between warm lather (Crown King scuttle is being used all month to start the building as well as keeping things warm!), the nice knot, the ergonomic handle, and the Type G goodness, I had a wonderful shave!

Razor:  Schick Repeating "A"
Blade: Taconic

Another amazing shave with the Schick A repeating razor.  Really like the repeaters as they shave extremely well for me, and they are really cool to boot Smile
