Love the handle of the GEM.

Have spent 10days familiarising myself with the S/S Claymore Se Razor/ AC Blade, and getting
great Shaves. Decided to make a return to vintage razors to see how they fared after my introduction to a more modern Razor/Blade. Yesterday I used an Injector and today went for a conventional SE razor. Quite pleased that on both days I had very good close shaves , not too dissimilar to that attained with the Modern Razor ,though perhaps not quite as smooth a Shave.

The streamline is a good looking razor and performs nearly as well as your claymore ,which when considering its age is fantastic.
 
Last minute overnight stay away from home last night, so I tried out a little travel shaving kit I put together recently. I was aiming for being able to have a quick shave in a compact size without skimping on some of my favourites...Proraso green features heavily:)
Pre: shower + Proraso Green pre-shave cream
Shave: Proraso green soap, Edwin Jagger Super Badger travel brush, Mini Gillette Sensor razor
Post: Proraso Green AS splash, followed by Proraso Green balm

Here's a pic of the kit I took back home a little earlier:

Enjoy the rest of the day everyone!

Mastro Livi Damasteel Ladder, 6/8 Full Hollow, French Point​

I ordered my Mastro Livi Club Shave Brush 2016 Edition and, while I am waiting for this exclusive and beautiful brush to be made by Mastro Livi - as well as for all the other members of Google+ Mastro Livi Club - for today's shave I used the very first Mastro Livi shave brush I ordered to him. As for the razor, I opted for a beautiful Damasteel Ladder pattern blade which delivered, as usual, a comfortable and close shave, although somewhat aggressive, something common to all Damasteel blades, as far as I can tell. Satisfactory shave for a smooth BBS, while dreaming of using my Mastro Livi Club Shave Brush 2016 Edition. I can't wait and, of course, I am counting each minute to the day Mastro Livi will give me this exclusive and beautiful shave brush.​

  • Pre-Shave: RazorGuy Pre-Shave Oil
  • Soap: Weleda Shaving Cream
  • Brush: Mastro Livi Silvertip Badger, Makassar Handle, 26mm knot
  • Bowl: Gerby Bowl

  • Razor: Mastro Livi Damasteel Ladder, 6/8 Full Hollow, French Point
