Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.

A bit of an odd couple with the razor selection today but they worked well together. The Eagle improved handled the front of the neck and the cheeks above beard line. The Schick N handled the back of the neck and a little bit of cleanup.

Lather Catcher Sunday's Shave
[Image: zcws.jpg]

Cold Water Rinse
Van Der Hagen Luxury Shave Soap
Jayaruh #423
1902 Kampfe Brothers/Star Lather Catcher
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Pinaud Clubman AS

The Van Der Hagen Luxury Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #423 Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the 1902 Kampfe Brothers/Star Lather Catcher Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Clubman AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I had a very enjoyable shave today with the Kampfe Brothers Star razor and a fresh Gem SS PTFE blade. I'm also really enjoying the scent and lather quality of The Novelist from The Club by Ariana & Evans.

I had a great shave today with my very rare American Button company Scroll handle Gem Jr. Bar. It's the only one I've seen

Lather Catcher Sunday!
Cold Water Shave
Pre: Neutrogena Soap Face Wash, Noxzema Cream as PreShave
Razor: Gem Junior Bar Lather Catcher
Blade: Gem SS PFTE (4)
Brush: Vulfix 374 Super Badger
Soap: Tabac
Post: Osma Alum Block, Thayers Unscented Witch Hazel, Skin Bracer, Nivea Sensitive Cooling Balm

First use of my new most eye-catching razor. IMO, the Gem Junior Bar lives up to its reputation as a smooth shaver that is efficient as well. It has a much lighter feel in my hand compared to yesterday's Damaskeene, which in the end was not an issue. A successful two and a half pass shave with bowl-lathered "buttercream" Tabac. I love that smell and such a smooth, creamy lather. I'm really finding the SE blade is much better at mowing through my thick stubble, particularly a trouble spot on the sides of my chin just below the mustache. Thanks to GAW9576 for providing some pre-shave advice on blade loading! Bring on Menthol Micromatic Monday Twelvefret!  Cool
