Parker 94r razor
Gillette Silver Blue blade
RazoRock Plissoft brush
Williams SS (Vintage)
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
M&L Florida Water Cologne w/added menthol (a lot!)
The GSB blade that felt so mild in the Weber yesterday felt a bit harsh in the Parker. Not bad mind you, but not as comfortable as in the Weber. First use of vintage Williams and it's the bomb. Fabulous lather in no time at all. Like it! So a fine shave was had and I"m ready to go. Now go enjoy your day folk

Prep - Noxzema / Hot towel
Pre shave - Proraso
Razor – Barbaros TR-1
Blade – Derby Extra
Brush - 'Jade' (Rooney Heritage 2XL Jade)
Soap – Through the Fire Fine Craft – Devil's Cut
Post - Witch Hazel, Jojoba oil.
hmm, strange one, that...the Derby seemed to bludgeon its way through, and the 'Jade' struggled to get the lather that I wanted, but I ended up BBS, although slightly irritated... some experimenting is on the cards, methinks....

MW Sandalwood Rose~~Simpson CH2 SiLVERTiP~~*ATT Kronos M2 OC~~Polsilver SI (3)~~Meehan Sandalwood Cologne
Have a great day!
*This razor was given to me by my friend Chris, whose generosity is overwhelming!
The shave with the ATT was outstanding. It reminded me of my 1921 Gillette Big Fellow, except the M2 Kronos is HEAVY!, wow, really heavy. That did not, however, effect the shave, as the balance of this razor is excellent. I am impressed with this razor.
Thank you again Chris!
