I used an unmentionable which was inspired buy a recent acquisition of SQRShaver. It's a mild but effective enough razor and I ended up with a very comfortable very adequate shave. So thanks Toby C

Very cool! Cool

To late. Big Grin  But don't worry it's a razor I already had and enjoy on occasion. I MOSTLY shave with mentionables but I have a fair amount of unmentionables that I pepper int the mix on occasion. The peppering was overdue.

I have not posted here in too long here are a couple of really nice shaves. The first was vintage Colgate with a MM and MM Double edge blade. Fantastic shave.


Next up A new fangled shave with old school results. The Challenger Shade razor and White Star shave stick.

Again with the White Star but this time with the mug soap and a 1907ish ER. Again great shave.    
       
Happy shaves to ya!

I had an excellent shave this morning with a Gem 1912, fresh Gem SS PTFE, LaToja, and an Omega boar. The lather today was even better than yesterday and I'm very glad I figured out the issues I had been having with boar brushes. Today's watch is the Casio G-Shock DW 5600E. And today's shave was also inspired by SRQShavers recent acquisition.

Menthol Monday's Shave
[Image: zcws.jpg]

Cold Water Rinse
Kiss My Face Shave Cream
Oscar11 Synthetic
Darwin-Stoll Jr. 3D
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Osage Rub

Day 8 of 3D Printed Razor Month.

The Kiss My Face Shave Cream lathered well with the Oscar11 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Darwin-Stoll Jr. 3D Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Love the wood on that brush!!!
Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.

Those handles come with a dark color on them, did you polish it off or you got it that way?
