A really good, slick lather mixed in the Brass bowl with the Gibbs - Vulfix combo easily enough for the shave.
The first couple of strokes with the newish blade in the USA 1912 felt a bit rough, it did improve a little during the shave, so hopefully this will continue. I ended up completing 2 passes with touch-up here and there. The final rinse off gave me some indication of how close this shave had been so a very rare rub of alum was required.
A nice post shave routine finishing with a good splash of Floïd SE which did not give a lot of indication although there are a couple of areas where it did fire up.
I will use the rubber band on the blade the next time to change the blade angle.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.
Ride the cap, ditch the rubber band, show us the top of that razor case! Vintage is the new cool.15/03/23
