Thur 28th April

Vulfix 404 mixed
MWF
Razor 1. Schick C3 repeater + Schick NOS platinum [Swede].
Razor 2. Schick B1 + Schick " Chick "
Alum Rub/Rinse Off
La Toja A/S Lotion

As this was my first shave with the C3 [gold] I started carefully on the cheek. It felt fairly harsh, but clearly cutting the stubble. After the first rinse I noted the blade had shifted in the head, so decided to change Razors.

I continued to shave using the B1[silver], which I had used before. This is extremely smooth with a modern blade , and when on the 3rd pass, it felt as though no cutting was taking place. When rinsing off the lather , it was very apparent that a very good close overall finish had been achieved.

Before using the C3 again I will try and close up the retaining spring on the head, to make the blade secure.

There is a General Consensus that the Repeaters Eat Blades..I would Agree with That..They Don't last as Long as in an Injector..;)

Good morning everyone. Wonderful shave this morning, BBS in 2 passes with angles adjusted for my growth. The Evahs is a deceptively efficient razor and i say deceptive because it feels so mild and smooth but it really takes it all off effortlessly. My Stirling MITA shave stick froze my face while the MITA balm at the finish only added more icy goodness. Brrr! Lovely! Have a great shave and a great day guys. :)
