Another 3D printed Gem style razor designed by Roger Quin today. This is a very light somewhat mild razor. Fun shave though. And this was my first use of the Rubberset 400 with its new Zenith Boar knot. Not surprisingly this is a great brush.

So I need help here as this was gifted to me some time ago. I had TOO many soaps at the time but liked the scent, so it was placed in a drawer until I could pull it out. It comes in a box similar to Williams soap. It's always been in the back of my mind that it's there and I finally got it out and placed it in a used Stirling tub. What a great lather and scent. The soap lacks residual slickness after you remove it from your face with a razor stroke but slickness returns if you wet your face. REALLY happy with it. I want to say it came from Paul (mrdoug) but can't be sure as my memory has failed me and I'm guessing ?? Soap rinses off easy and face feels great afterwards. Great product from the Netherlands. Have a great day !

Not a great shave today, my fault, i should have changed the blade. It was OK on the WTG pass and also on the XTG cheeks pass, Not too good on the ATG throat pass.
A little indication from the splash but not much, onwards and upwards,
Stay safe and enjoy your day All.

Menthol Monday's Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Ingram Shave Cream
Jayaruh #313 Badger
Rolls Traveler
1953 Rolls Blade

It has been over four years since I have shaved with my Rolls. So, I decided to break it out and hopefully use it Monday through Saturday this week. 

The Ingram Shave Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #313 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Rolls Traveler Razor with a 1953 Rolls Blade Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
