SOTD Saturday 3rd December - Friday 9th December 2016.

Razor: Gillette Milord 1940
Blade: Lord Platinum Class (7)
Brush: WDC-8 w/ El Druida Manchurian
Soap: Chiseled Face Ghost Town Barber (Sample)
Aftershave: Arko After Shave Balm
Excellent 3 pass shave with no cleanup for a change. Got 7 shaves from the Lord Platinum and was very happy with each and everyone. The Chiseled Face Ghost Town Barber is not a bad soap, however, it will not be on buy list.

Stirling coniferous soap, Proyet Badger two band brush, Proyet setter, Backal Guadalajara razor 7/8, añeja vetiver after shave, Vetiver de Guerlain eau de toilette.
Prior to the working night, well shaved head and beard outlined. Of the soaps I have this is the most intense fragancy, I always feel like in forest, good performance, the brush with that knot fan a caress to the skin, the singing razor and excellent match the Vetiver, full. Salute friends.

Thur 8th Dec

RazoRock Plissoft 24mm
OSP Bay Rum
ER "Streamline"
Gem S/S [ 2 ]
Alum Rub/Rinse off
Jaguar Prestige A/S Lotion

After shaves with a Modern SE AC blade [ Claymore] & Vintage Injector was time to try a Gem Powered SE Razor. I chose what is perhaps my favourite an ER "Streamline", which always provides a great shave. The Shave was as usual smooth and
comfortable and all round very close, apart from where I may have cut short on polishing strokes.

Quite amazing how well a blade designed decades ago performs in a well designed razor. Have a feeling that eventually the
new breed of SE Razors will win out, due to the quality and range of AC blades available.

I truly enjoy using this brush. The weight of the brass handle combined with the excellent backbone and flow through of the Druida knot make this brush a lather making machine. The Rossa provided a wonderful slick base with a great scent making the shave all the more enjoyable. A 2 pass, XTG & ATG, followed by minimal touch ups ended in near BBS. I hope everyone has a great Thursday.
