Such a beautiful razor. Love the contrast between the aluminum handle and the bronze spring. 
I'm learning to TIG weld once I get comfortable with it I have some silicone bronze filler rod to play with TIG brazing. Can't wait to try that out.

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

Cold Water Rinse
Proraso Red Shaving Soap
Jayaruh 30RS
J.A. Henckels Rapide
J.A. Henckels Wedge
CWR
Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB

The Proraso Red Shaving Soap was applied with the Jayaruh 30RS silver tip brush. One pass and touch ups with the J.A. Henckels Rapide Lather Catcher with a J.A. Henckels Wedge blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Vintage Month - Razor #25

Pre: Shower
Brush: Yaqi Rainbow 26mm
Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat
Razor: Valet VC1 Gold Tone
Blade: Despined GEM PTFE S/S (3)
Post shave: Alum, Cold water Rinse,  TC's infused Witch Hazel
Balm: Barts Balm Cinnamon & Patchouli Balm & Lotion
Aftershave: Signature soaps Danum Splash
[Image: Wk-4-3.jpg]
A very nice shave with the Valet VC1 today, plenty of slick creamy lather from he Yaqi and MWF, enough for 4 passes.
I complete a full 3 pass shave WTG / XTG & ATG for a very close BBS finish.
I know i have said i find these Vintage Girls are mild and efficient, however, you still have be careful, i noticed a small graze under the chin during the ATG pass which prompted the use of the alum block. 
A nice post shave matching the Barts with the 1st use of Signature Soap Danum splash, very nice.
Stay safe and enjoy your day.
