S.O.T.D. Saturday 9th July to Friday 15th July 2016

Fri 15th July

Vulfix 404 mixed
MWF
PAL Adjustable- No 3
Schick NOS Platinum [ 1] ex Sweden
Alum Rub/Rinse
Jaguar Prestige

Took the opportunity to test PAL No 3 , not previously used by me.Used an NOS Schick blade [ From Sweden ]. Obviously
nothing has gone awry in the manufacture of this Razor. On a mid setting it seems to stick like glue to the face, and eliminates whiskers without effort. Result very smooth and close shave with no problems. If as " Fergiebilly " says the
Dutch blades are the best , I must look out for some because the Swedes are v.good.

I used the Timeless SB head this morning. A weighty razor. I'd say it is at the upper end of 'efficient', bordering on 'aggressive'. As a Weber is to a Tech, then this razor is to a Weber. Ish. Smashing shave and some William's a/s - Acqua Velva - let me know it was very close!

Also new was my first ever Rudi Vey brush, which I have called a Middle Aged Snowman shape with a super-duper knot whose name I can't remember. Superb, is all I need to know!

Nanny's Traditional Neroli, also superb, and a NOS Sputnik blade.
