Awesome to join us for SEptember old friend! And you seem to be  an efficient shaver - you have covered tomorrow’s  GEM as well!! Taking a peak at Jayaruh’s 1st post of the lineup for week 1 I’m getting ready for the open comb Damaskeene tomorrow - and you got it covered! I know you have a sweeeeeet pile of razors. I would bet you could ride right along for SE month if you are in the mood!?! And you don’t need use what Jayaruh is using - any Single Edge would qualify! Maybe an awesome Dr Scott Electric - or if feeling rich that day a titanium Wolfman! Schick? Zinn Auto?  : )

Thank you. I do have a plethora of SE razors. I don't have a woolfman though and I  don't believe I have a Dr. Scott. I do have a Zinn Automatic though. And at least one of every letter of the Schick alphabet, although my O is a clone.

You could do a     T”O”ST   THREE     Schick 9 day series with the “clone” representing modern technology. Smile

Is there a T?

There is no t or s in the Schick lineup. They stopped at O.

Thursday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Nivea Shave Cream
Jayaruh #2 2-band Badger
Ever-Ready Army Kit
Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade
CWR
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Nivea Shave Balm

The Nivea Shave Cream was face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #2 Two-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Ever-Ready Army Kit and the Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Nivea Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

SEptember is rolling nicely along.


   

   
(The Wright’s Stick was popular in WW1 serving double duty as shave and body soap)


I used my trusty beat up 1914 for this shave. I did not use the brush above nor any Coal Tar soap, but went modern with a new GEM Ptfe, Thater 26mm and a terrific Truefitt & Hill sandalwood soap. I really enjoy the 1914 shave, and the one I used has been my travel razor for pretty much 15 years now.
