Friday Morning Ever Sharp Exultation
Dug out an old Injector with a fifth use Schick blade. BANGER shave. I remember not really liking this razor during my Unmentionable Days and now that I have seen the Light of SE Shaving it was such a pleasure to use this morning. Little vintage Pure Badger brush served up a beautiful 2 pass lather.

Sunday Morning Speed Shave
Needed a quick and effective set up today and this fit the bill. One application of ARKO netted two passes and a face wash. Blade was already in the Hawk. Omega synthetic was ready to go with a quick dip.
Smooth and effortless.

Monday Morning Shave Mania
Dialed up a bit more blade exposure for this mornings shave with a fourth use modified Feather AC Light blade and oh my. What a slight turn on the Empire will accomplish. Two passes and I was a smooth little boy. I'm liking this little boar brush a lot. Needs some work to get softer but she picks up lather well and doesn't hog it. Overall a very nice shave.
