Schick injector adjustable with Gillette platinum plus blade
St. James of London cedarwood and clarysage cream
Gillette Old Type "the spoiler" super stainless
I was right. The injector blade was worn out and barely made a decent pass. Finished off well with the DE.

Thursday
Gillette Tech (English) Ball End
Personna Red (4 and out)
Semogue 1305
Erasmic Supreme Stick
Aqua de Gio EdT
Two pass
Face lather
Good enough but the blade just got to the finishing post, hence only two passes.
I have rediscovered the joys of the 1305; it's been hiding in my draw for many months and I now recall why I thought it was so good in the first instance.
All in all, very happy.

After the usual 1-2 minute hot towel prep:
vintage butterscotch Ever Ready badger
1970s L type Schick injector/Personna Twinjector (NOS)
Surrey SS (pre VDH reformulation)
Caron 'Yatagan' AS (1970s original version)
Second morning with this twinjector blade and another extremely close shave. For me, it's not quite as sharp as a few other blades I've tried, but still easy to use and man....my face is smoooooth.
BBS results,
Martin

Semogue LE 2011 Best Badger 1 #69
L'Oreal After Shave Balm
Herve Leger Homme
This razor is equal (easily) in build quality to the Feather stainless for less money. But it shaves even better due to the traditional open comb end. When pared with a Feather blade and MWF it has no equal.

This morning:
Imperial Leather soap
Feather Artist Club RG (wood), ProGuard blade (1)
Body Shop Maca Root cream
Neep English Yew Badger
Trumper's Coral skin food
Penhaligon's Endymion cologne
Very pleasant at the time - first experience of this cream - and no visible damage or tissue marking. On arriving at work forty minutes later, I am bleeding (slightly) in four separate places. Most peculiar.
