What razor did you use today?

Today starts Phase 2 of OCtober. Those of you who have been following along might remember that in Phase 1 the first pairing was a 1918 Gillette Old and a RazoRock Old Type and it wasn't even close; the RazoRock Old Type was simply hands above the Gillette Old.

Ordered from right to left.

That was a major surprise and so for this time I am trying another 1918 Gillette Old against the RR Old Type.

First up is the 1918 Gillette and the blade is a no-date-code US made Gillette Platinum Plus blade from 1970 give or take a year or so.

The brush is an EverReady two-tone pure badger 300PBT from sometime before 1957 and the soap is Old Spice in an Old Spice shaving mug.

The end product was an almost PDG shave, got all the hairs but simply not as comfortable as usual. This may be the blade and I'll use the same blade tomorrow to see if the RR Old Type is as nice as it was in Phase 1.
