Storm Eunice.
Going to work this morning around 5.30am there was a bit strong wind with a lot of very wet snow/sleet, it had cleared up by  about 830, we have had the sun out since about 10am, then as i write the sky has started growing darker. 

Stay safe and enjoy your day all.

Friday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Cella Shave Soap
Semogue 1305 Boar
Provision Supply V2
Personna Injector
CWR
Cella ASB

The Cella Shave Soap lathered well with the Semogue 1305 Boar Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Provision Supply V2 Razor with plate three and a Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Cella ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I have gotten into the habit of using the same setup for a month. This has a couple of benefits, one being that I only have to decide what to shave with once a month. Secondly I no longer have to keep track of how many shaves are on a blade. The first of the month a new blade goes in & at the end of the month the blade goes in the trash.

February is my birth month so I wanted to go with something a little specials.
With all that being said here is my setup for the month of February. 

Brush: Kent, Pure Silvertip Badger
Soap: Tabac

Beautiful razor. And that's a cool Avon bottle. They had some really interesting designs for there bottles.
One blade each month, do you shave every day?

I had an excellent shave this morning with my Pat. 1898 Gem lather catcher. I've been wanting to try a wedge adapter in a lather catcher for a while. The modern blade with adapter shaved quite well in this beautiful old razor. It was a tight fit though. The vintage Williams soap lathered quickly and abundantly with the Zenith boar brush. Aqua Velva finished off this fantastic shave.

Very nice. That Gem sure cleaned up nicely.

Very nice. That Gem sure cleaned up nicely.

Thank you. And yes s indeed it did. I will have to try it out with a real wedge blade soon.
