BSS WTG, nice shave,shame Mr nick and Mr cut,the brothers grim, poped in to my shaving den this morning,with two nicks to the face, and a nice cut to my arm, I know "your arm" ? I wipe the blade,going backwards for years,and never cut my self, nothing bad,I gess it's my turn to bleed like a bitch to day
Win some loose some:icon_cry2:
 
I hope it's nothing serious John! Do you wipe the blade when you're all finished or between passes (on the skin)? I wipe it on a towel after my shaves (and sometimes in between passes :icon_rolleyes:).
 
Friday shave:

Geo F. Trumpers Coconut shaving soap sample + Simpson Duke3 Best + Gillette Tech Nº44 England with Iridium Super + Myrsol Agua Balsámica with La Chinata balm

Today a quick & effective shave! This soap is easy to lather, although I think that shaving cream coconut is better.

Cheers!

Don't worry its nothing bad thanks, the razors just getting pay back for neglect (non use ) think I will try and get some thing set up for a towl more close to hand in future, it was only a matter of time before one of them got me,kind of stupid of me to wipe my blade that way :blush:

EJDE89L with Bolzano (2)
Vulfix 404 bristle & badger
Palmolive stick and Erasmic cream (new) super-lather
Ogallala bay rum L & P
RSC balm

The Bolzano blade certainly doesn't give the smoothest shave in this razor but the results are very good with very little irritation.
