Yeah. I found that by changing the handle for an EJ DE89 handle I had it just seemed to work - only by trial and error though.

I've had a most excellent shave this morning!
Thanks to @Tony'schin for the made in Scotland Perma-sharp NOS blades. They were super smooth in the Tech and now, so am I!
Ready for the day ahead, whatever it holds!
Morning conference call, definitely the time to update SoTD!
Have a great day fellas.

During my time on the Isle of Anglesey...I kept things simple and had wonderful shaves for the duration of my trip.
I haven't decided what I will use later today......too much choice!

Nice close shave but not enjoyable yet. A couple of nicks and some mild soreness, some if not all attributable to products used.
I've ordered some Proraso White Pre and Balm and will use TOBS Lavender

That was an excellent shave. I have finally created a small indentation in the top of my MDC soap. At some point I'll have to decant it, from the jar, into something wider. Maybe in a year's time...

Williams Wednesday SEptember 22, 2021
Razor: RWNN (Razor With No Name)
Blade: Modified Gem
Brush: Stirling Synthetic
Soap: Vintage Williams
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: Vintage Williams Aqua Velva
Fragrance: Nautica Blue
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1,050
No information with this razor that I have NEVER seen another of. I am told by Jeff @jmudrick it is made by Traut and Hine before their Dandy razor but that still doesn't give me a name and neither does the box. The only info on the razor is Patent Nov 14, 1911 and that matches the Patent info found ( Thanks @riverrun ) I believe I will dub it the RWNN (Razor With No Name) Have a great Wednesday everyone !

Boti 27mm Boar - TFS Barber - RazoRock Halk V2/Proshave S - Cien Aqua AS
A 'Face Feeler' in 3 passes. When I was away I took advantage of a very large new Lidl store and bought a few bottles of their aftershave which is impossible to find at home. At the price....it would have been rude not to!

Exactly the same shaving gear as yesterday. My opinion of the Claymore Evolution remains unchanged. Mine is a comfortable and effective razor. I like it.
