Shave of the day, Saturday 8th- Friday 14th April 2017

Thur 13th April
RazoRock Syn. 24mm
Tabac stick
Colonial Brass General
Schick Proline P-20
Alum Rub/Rinse off
Tabac A/S Lotion

After my first shave with the Brass General the reduced amount of regrowth was quite noticeable. The Razor/blade-combo is very efficient, and is ideal for people like myself with a heavy beard growth.Not too sure it would be a good daily choice for those with light beards and sensitive skin.

My second Shave with The General was as yesterdays, smooth comfortable and ultra close. I may try out a Feather Pro blade to see how they go, as they are a bit cheaper than the Schick. Have to pass this Razor on but mine has been shipped today.

I haven't been feeling too well (man flu), so I thought I'd have a extreme hit of menthol to wake me up and open up the airways.

Great performance, smooth and no irritation.

It's amazing how a good shave can make you feel better

....And the Hits just keep on coming!
The Felce Aromatica is just gorgeous, fabulous scent all the way through the shave, great lather, excellent glide.
Three passes,... minimal pick-ups,...a bit of post-shave burn but I'll put that down to trying to squeeze another shave out of the blade,...lesson learned, blades are cheap!
Creedence on the turntable,......ain't it great to be alive!
 


Brush: Omega 20102
Razor: Gillette Rocket HD w/ Rapira Super Stainless (3)
Soap: Phoenix and Beau Solaris
Post: Thayers Rose Witch Hazel & Alcolado Glacial

A great shave today, my favourite P&B soap, love this fragrance and hope to burn through it so I can get a new one to try a 10 week cured soap. The Rocket is quick becoming a favourite razor and worked well with the Rapira. Haven't used Alcolado in a while, very refreshing and certainly wakes you up!​
 
First shave with the Enders Speed and Personna Injector. I should have used a fresh blade to be fair, but even with a few laps the Enders comported itself well. Not as smooth as I'd like ATG but that's likely a combination of blade wear and perhaps some fine tuning needed in blade exposure. Still a three pass BBS shave.

The injector blade sits snuggly in the tray without modification, but without blade stops has a range of exposure determined by its precise placement. A stock Enders blade with its edge removed locks in place on top of the Injector securing it. These razors are dirt cheap, in colors to match every outfit, and are well worth tinkering with!
