S.O.T.D. Saturday 2nd August to Friday 8th August 2014

Bulldog Face Wash
Erasmic Shaving Soap
Kent Infinity Silvertex
Comfort Lather Catcher (1904)
GEM Super Stainless [1]
Hot Rinse, Cold Rinse & Alum Wash
4711 Original EDC (as Aftershave)
Issey Miyake L'eau D'Issey Pour Homme

Face Lathered
One Pass - WTG

Two day's growth, one pass ...

This is an efficient combination! I might even say dangerous, but the blade presentation and the angle makes for a super-efficient shave, safe only with the lightest of touches and rather brought a flutter to my heart, like the first time I tried a Feather Artist Club.

True to its name, it caught all the lather. This razor goes into the rotation. The handle is incomplete and I think I'd rather a more solid and slight longer handle.

Time to talk to a man with a lathe ....

A nice looking razor Paul, I like the writing on the head, a little respect needed in shaving I guess :icon_eek:
