An early Morning Sunday shave while Mrs TC is having a lie in, Up today is the 1936 Stainless Rolls Razor with original blade. on standby i have the Rocnel 316 SE-P.
A wonderful lather today with the scent still lingering as i write this, i will finish off my post shave with the balm and splash a little later as i don't want to disturb the Darlin'.
So, 2 passes WTG and XTG with the little Rolls, however, it was starting to pull a bit towards the end of the XTG pass, after a rinse off i was happy with the result although those pesky stubborn areas i could still feel on the finger-tip smoothness test. 
I had the lather and the "TMDFRITW"  Wink Rocnel  SE-P on hand so i completed a buffing pass to finish off. That's better.
A cold water rinse and a rub of witch Hazel to finish off in the bathroom.
I have cleaned and dried off the rolls and completed a touch up on the blade, 25 laps on the stone and 50 on the leather to freshen the edge. 
I really enjoyed that from the wonderful soap through to the witch hazel rub. Using these old razors really makes me smile.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.

Cold Water Shave
Brush: Simpson Duke 2 Best Badger 
Soap: Signature Soap Hibernian
Razor: Ever ready 1924 shovel head 
Blade:   GEM PTFE S/S (6)
Post shave: Cold water rinse, Infused Witch Hazel 
Balm: Barts Balm Lime Balm & Lotion
Aftershave: Vintage Ferd. Mülhens 4711 EDC

A nice 2 pass shave with some touch up of the stubborn areas leaving me BBS again. i did forget on the first few strokes to make sure the razor gets a good shake as these 1924's hold onto the water in the head due to its design, nothing a shake cannot sort out.
This soap by Signature Soaps is very fresh, i normally go for a more musky citrus scent, however, the Hibernia is very light and uplifting, another great lather created easily in the bowl today and plenty of it.
The Lime scented Barts Balm and lotion carrying on the sweet citrus scent, finishing off with some Vintage 4711 which i find to be a nice Match, this vintage stuff seems to have more alcohol and i did get a bit of a sting on application, not a bad thing.
I seemed to pick up a few bumps and a little irritation on my left cheek yesterday, probably from the blade tugging a bit, nothing like that today as the shovel head is a very efficient razor, the splash and the balm calming everything down.
Stay safe and enjoy your day All.

Tonight I went with my BMMOC and a 3 rd use Gem SS PTFE and had a very relaxing late in the day shave. The Wickham Irish Fern lathered well with a 2 band badger and the Clubman Pinaud Lilac Vegetal provided a fine finish.
