S.O.T.D Saturday 14th October - Friday 20th October 2017

I felt like that with the Supply - plate *** when using the Persona, a mild shave. However, that changed after playing around with the angle and then when I loaded the Supply with a Proline P20 blade with the custom plate (**).

I now, consistently get a BBS with 3 passes, with the Supply on the custom plate. I appreciate that YMMV.

I was worried that this razor would not work for me. I'm delighted that I stuck with this.

I am now thinking about going for the Supply V2.0 - it sounds as if this razor has slightly more efficiency/aggression. I wonder if the Supply v2.0 will give me a BBS with the custom plate, using the Personna blades?

If my experience is anything to go by, I recommend keeping on with the Supply-SE.

All the best,

Chris

I have tried the Schick Proline Type B on plate 3, and have to work extra hard to get a closish
all round Shave. Am afraid it is too mild for my beard,as I get super quality Shaves with Vintage Injectors, such as the PAL injector-Matic.

I was planning to use Vitos Green all this week but the talk of Vitos Red elsewhere in this forum made me eager to use it again and I was pleased I did; it's one of my favourite soaps for sure.

Semogue 2000
Schick Krona
Schick Platinum Plus (6)
La Toja Shaving Cream
Thayers Rose, La Toja Balm and Aftershave & Mr Perfume Roja Amber Oudh

Love some La Toja, one of my favourite all round shaving products. Could happily be a daily user of La Toja. I did think I was pushing this blade a little too far but to my surprise it gave me a clean, trouble free shave, maybe not quite smooth as butter in use but not tuggy or bad feeling. I will continue using it until it feels like I'm plucking a harp.

My Mr Perfume order arrived today so couldn't resist a dab of it. Certainly isn't a weak scent, at first it seemed a little too feminine but it is growing on me. ​

Tues 17th Oct.
RazoRock Plissoft 24mm
Cyril Salter Solid Soap
ATT SE1 / Windrose S/S Handle
Schick Proline [ 5 ]
Alum Rub/Rinse off
Pitralon Polar A/S Lotion

Took out today what I think is my favourite modern AC/SE, the ATT SE1 which I love the feel of, and its ability to be used with a featherlight touch to get rid of any stubborn areas of growth.

The CS soap is proving to be a winner for me , as it certainly helped make todays Shave very smooth and comfortable. Nice to be rewarded with a great close all round -shave, even going ATG round the neck was not a problem.
