Razor: Feather Artist Club RG (wood), Pro blade (7)
Brush: Neep #1145 onyx chess pawn 26mm extra silvertip
Soap: Vitos Supercrema
Aftershave: Prof Blighty's Red Ginger

I think the week with the Rodgers has improved my blade angle. Spectacular shave, what a razor this is!
 
I close the week with this photo of my old Micro · Tac, and williams sport. This week I made ​​a major effort to find reasons to go every day in this return to the past. Hope you enjoyed, gentlemen.

 


second outing with the Fitjar, this gives outstanding shaves on my face.

If you are thinking of trying it, this don't lather up into a thick lather, but a thin lather, and thats plenty to do the job,
and the sent is super powerfull.

Dove soap/hot face cloth prep
TI Le Dandy (looks like the tape trick from now on)
Fitjar shaving cream
Kent Bk2 brush
