I like using vintage razors and have quite a selection collected over the years. Almost without exception these old beauties, when fitted with the ubiquitous GEM se blade, can shave as well as modern razors. Sustainability is the keyword fellas.
I just got the Clemak which I posted about in Acquisitions. It is a hoe type so shave angle is like using….. well a hoe!

Black Mountain Pizgah soap, GEM Personna blade, badger knot rehab of old butterscotch handle brush

Finish bbs in 2 passes and pick ups from a 100 year old razor.

Have a fine day fellas!

Mate. Love the Razor. I have to ask though, what Shaving Soap Tub is that? The Cover is Fantastic.

* Bergamot/Vetiver EO

Hi Celestino what exact brand of EO is it?

Not sure if they ship outside of Canada. In my opinion, one of the best smelling combinations of EO's that I've tried. Just beautifully done; a great subtle masculine scent.
