Williams Wednesday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Shave Soap
SlimGEM Silvertip Badger
AutoStrop A1
Modified Personna GEM
CWR
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Aqua Velva 5 in 1 Balm

The Williams Mug Shave Soap was face-lathered well with the SlimGEM Silvertip Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the AutoStrop A1 Razor and the Modified Personna GEM Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Aqua Velva 5 in 1 Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Yeah - Lather Catcher Sunday in  Lathtober!!!

I was inspired by talk of the Wester brothers and their wonderful razors last month in SEptember. Purchased cutlery was renamed at German manufacturers and shipped to the brothers, who sold their wares out of New York. They are not lather catchers I guess, but in some circles I hear tell it is also Cheatober after all! I am very happy to have this razor - it is a great shaver. (I figure I may be ok if I don’t mention the others in the armory. Good to have options!)

Nice razor. Don't remember seeing one like that. Don't let Fuzzy see that unmentionable razor and blade in the picture. HA! I have slipped up a few times myself.
