Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1000

Shave #1000 without missing a shave. As I stated before I believe I am MUCH further than that, but this is what I could state that was documented. As a daily shaver it will go up for sure and is just a marker. Next marker would be the 3 year mark of @1095 I guess (not sure if there is a leap year involved. GREAT shave with the products and tools selected. Have a Stellar day Folks !!!

Tabac Tuesday's Shave
[Image: zcws.jpg]

Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #414 Silvertip Badger
AutoStrop A1
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Tabac AS

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #414 Silvertip Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the AutoStrop A1 Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Brush: Graydog Oak
Soap: Haslinger Schafmilch
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: CGF Ghost Town Barber

Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1001

This razor came in a lot purchase. It was in a Gem case but obviously an ER Made in England. It has and aluminum handle which I'm unsure of it being original or not but assume it was as it's in the same immaculate condition as the head. Mild shave with a narrow sweet spot. Pay attention to angle and a GREAT close comfortable shave. Have a GREAT day Guys !

Late ‘50’s PB GEM (gold and black) with PTFE GEM blade, Arko (I know Arko stinks), Semogue Mixed Midget

For me, this blade holder doesn’t compare to the effectiveness of either a BMMOC or MMOC, but it reminds me of a ‘57 Chevrolet…lol! For that reason, I love it!?

I haven't used my BP in a while. I like the handle length of it but for some reason tend to pick the Featherweight Deluxe over the PB.
