Lather Catcher Sunday's Shave
[Image: zcws.jpg]

Cold Water Rinse
LaToja Shaving Stick
Tom's B400 Two-band Badger
J.A. Henckels Rapide
Henckels Wedge
CWR
Florida Water

The LaToja Shaving Stick Shave Soap lathered well with Tom's B400 Two-band Badger. Two passes and touch ups with the J.A. Henckels Rapide Lather Catcher razor with a Henckels Wedge blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I had a wonderful shave with the Eagle Improved razor today. It can be used with a trimmed down Gem blade. It was a surprisingly mild yet fairly efficient razor. I didn't get the usual first use harshness that Gem blades sometimes have. The soap is a hand made Dragon's Blood scented soap a friend made me. I need to dial in the amount of water to use to get a better lather but entail testing was good. And I love the scent.

Monday April 26, 2021
Razor: GE Jones Shake Sharp
Blade: Wizamet (7) Double Stacked
Brush: SV 2.0 Bamboo
Soap: T&S Sicily 1508.5
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: T&S Sicily
Fragrance: BVLGARI Aqva Amara
Consecutive Daily Shaves - 901

The 1508.5 continues and is reaching a tipping point. The ring around the tub has lifted and broke. It has been mushed together into the tub again and appears to be close to being killed now. The GE Jones Shake Sharp is a razor that I had my interest raised in by Jeff (Jgreenepa)I'm thankful to have been directed to it and the double stacking of 2 de blades in it. Few if any can match it's combination of smoothness and effectiveness for me. Just an amazing shave today and in for a long one. Enjoy your day Everyone !
