Tues 17th Jan
RazoRock 22 mm
Haslinger Honig
General SE
Kai Mild pink
Alum Rub / Rinse off
Massimo Dutti A/S lotion

After shaving with heavier Razors, the lighter General felt more aggressive, and in areas it actually felt quite harsh. Perhaps I need to have a series of Shaves with it, to improve my handling, as apart from around the neck the overall shave finish was good.

Been ages since I used some Super Smooth, popped a fingertip amount into my bowl and went to work, lathers beautifully. I would love to see this scent as a 1912 soap. Wonderful, clean and fresh. Spice Trade lined up for tomorrow. ​

Oh, I do like this Razor. It's so far given me 2 very pleasant, really smooth, close shaves without drama. The No4 Bay Rum from @BigBoar complimented the @OSP soap really well.
The Semogue continues to impress.

See you on Thursday, General in hand.

Hello all,

Pre-shave - warm shower, Wright's cold-tar soap and Proraso pre-shave cream (green)
Razor - Muhle Rocca R96
Blade - Astra SP (day 1)
Cream - Executive Shaving Bay Rum natural scented shaving cream
Brush - Simpsons Duke 2
Post shave - Good cold water rinse and D.R Harris Bay Rum aftershave.

Experimented a bit today with the lather on the Bay run - got a very good consistency. Nice 2 pass shave, although picked up a smaller weeper.

Have a good day.

The Gibbs Adjustable is a great razor, and underrated IMO......did you have a custom handle put on it?

I agree, a most underrated razor, as for the handle.... that is just something I cobbled together untill I get a custom handle made for me by one of the members on this fourm, it does the job for now! :)
