Lather Catcher Sunday's Cold Water Shave
Cold Water Rinse
LaToja Shaving Stick
Semogue 1305 boar
J.A. Henckels Rapide
Henckels Wedge
CWR
Aqua Velva Musk
The LaToja Shaving Stick lathered well with the Semogue 1305 boar Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the J.A. Henckels Rapide Lather Catcher Razor and the Henckels Wedge blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Sunday Morning Shave Salutations
And a Happy Mothers Day to all Mothers and Wives. My Mother has sadly passed but I celebrate her
every day by residing in the house I grew up in.
So I don't know if this beautiful Dunhill qualifies as a Lather Catcher but it
certainly shares some DNA with it's Wedge Blade cousins.
Loaded a fresh GEM this morning and was rewarded with a beautiful BBS Shave.

Monday Morning MicroMatic & MDC Melee
Wanted to try out some Vintage Personna Injector blades that came my way recently.
Popped one into my trusty Bullet Tip and WOW, are they a sweet shave.
MDC Sample only required a bit of loading and produced a nice rich three pass lather plus
a face wash.

Little Made-Rite badger did well with the TOBS cream. Just had to dip twice for three passes
and a face wash. 17th Use on the Kai blade and it's performing like new. Amazing AC blade.

I have never used it, but thought I would share a pic of my favorite 1942 Toilet Soap as a consideration for a pre wash.
