Prep - Shower / Woods Of Windsor Cedar Woods soap / Pre-lather / 3 min steam towel
Razor - Gillette Slim Adjustable
Blade - Astra SP (#10)
Brush - Omega 20106
Soap - Arko / Mint / Orange EO
After - Frozen towel / Alum / Witch Hazel
Result - BBS (Blood Blood Spurting)

Caught my chin badly but other than that, actually got BBS. Back with the Slim Adjustable for the first time since RAD kicked in. Just reinforced that it's my favourite DE.
 
After the usual 1-2 minute hot towel prep:

1964 rebranded Macys flopmeister silvertip
'Webly'/Wilkinson Light Brigade (NOS)
DR Harris Marlborough SC
Lucky Tiger AS and Face Tonic
no EdT....weird


This razor/blade is one hell of a combo. Craziest thing finding the Stahly head for the brains of this Frankenrazor. Bestest non adjustable fit for me of anything else I have shaved with.

This cream is good.....very good. Performance is sure better than many other creams. The scent appeals to me, it being an understated dry woodsy scent. Kinda like Cade, but this DR Harris has a little more pop to it. Classy.

BBS results,

Martin

I should probably know - but I don't. What is the razor, please, Shemen?
A Willkinsonsword Classic in black derling plastic (the German version) circa 2003. I think it's still available cheaply on the high street, a very mild incarnation of the sticky I believe, work well with a Feather.

You mean this sort of thing? Yours looked very classy!
 
Brush: Whipped Dog Silver Tip Badger
Soap: Huntlee - Master Lather - Sweet Tobacco
Razor: 1912 SE
Blade: GEM
Aftershave/EDT: Dunhill - 53.1N

Fantastic shave, face lathered for a change. Explosion of lather for more than two passes, though two is good enough for me. Always a decent close shave with the 1912, this is it for me know. All finished off in the best possible taste! Feeling totally refreshed.

Have a great evening Gents. :D
