Lather Catcher Sunday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Arko Shave Stick
Jayaruh #144 Finest Badger
J.A. Henckels Rapide
J.A. Henckels Wedge
CWR
Aqua Velva 5 in 1 After Shave Balm

The Arko Shave Stick lathered well with the Jayaruh #144 Finest Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the J.A. Henckels Rapide Lather Catcher and the J.A. Henckels Wedge Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva 5 in 1 After Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I have been wanting to shave with this razor ever since I bought it months ago, but it is too wide for a standard blade.  I cut an AC blade to size and fashioned an adapter from one of those flexible plastic rulers.  It needs more work, but I decided to give it a try today.  It was a mild shave with lots of feedback.  Perhaps the blade needs to come forward a bit.  I made my third ATG pass with my Parker Injector.

Razor: Torrey No. 1 Lather Catcher
Blade: Feather Professional  AC
Brush: Rudy Vey 2022 B & B Contributor Brush
Pre-Shave: Proraso Green
Lather: Caswell-Massey Number Six
Aftershave: Proraso Green Splash
Additional Care:
  Thayers Facial Tonic Witch Hazel Unscented
  Imperial Leather Talcum Powder
