SOTD : Saturday 31st March - Friday 6th April 2018.

Thur 5th April

Vulfix 404 mixed
Vitos Super red
Supply Se- V2 no3 Plate
Schick Proline [ 3 ]
Jaguar Prestige A/S Lotion

The Supply is unlikely to become my favourite Injector, provides a smooth and comfortable Shave
with a fairly good overall finish without fuss. I have others of a far greater Vintage which are as easy to shave with and get a better finish, also without hassle.

 
Brush: Vie-Long 14846 Horse/Badger
Soap: WK Man From Mayfair
Razor: ER Streamline
Blade: Gem SS
Post: Warm then cold water rinse, WK Man From Mayfair AST

Having been impressed with Wholly Kaw's vegan soap I was really looking forward to this and it didn't disappoint.
It's definitely one of the best soaps I've tried, my only grumble is, it's a bit heavily scented for me.
I really like the scent but just a tad strong, easily to live with when you consider the performance and post shave.
It's a very thirsty soap and easy to overload your brush but once dialed in the rewards are excellent.
The Toner is also great, as a balm would have been overkill on the nourishment front.
I must be impressed, the Streamline didn't get a mention until now.
Happy Shaving one and all.

My first shave with an R41. Thanks to @Rohleder . Certainly a very different ball game from my usual Rockwell/Merkur razors.
Blade feel was very apparent from the off, I was a little fearful at first but confidence grew. Although the shave did take a little longer than usual.
Finished with Eternity Summer EdT. Well, the sun did shine today !

Thanks everyone for their kind words. I seem to have no excuses not to continue with the photos (although I can't promise to be organised enough every morning!).

Brush: Omega S10083
Soap: Meißner Tremonia Wild Woods
Razor: Vigshaving combination head (safety bar side) on RazoRock bamboo SS handle
Blade: Bic Chrome Platinum (3)

Shiny seems to be the theme for today's shave. This new razor head arrived earlier this week, so I've put the beast that is the Parker 99R to one side for a bit. Next to that today's razor feels almost toy-like.

The Vigshaving didn't seem to glide as easily as the Parker, but the shave was at least as good, and at least I can fit the damn thing under my nose! The glide may have been impaired by my not taking the time to build a proper lather, of course. I look forward to becoming better acquainted with this razor in the coming weeks.

Happy shaving, all.
