Love that razor Dave! Looks interesting. Was never a big fan of the Fat either and I shelved it . May revisit it someday down the road and hopefully rediscover a whole new love for it . Great to see you looking after the folks !?

Friday's Shave
Cold Water Rinse
Eufros Sandalo Shave Soap
Jayaruh #41 2-band Badger
Russian ShaDE
Personna Injector Blade
CWR
Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS
The Eufros Sandalo Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #41 2-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Russian ShaDE Razor with a Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
I usually use a half DE blade for this razor, but I wanted to see if I could use an injector blade. It fit perfectly, and the shave was very smooth with no issues. It reminded me of using my Blackhawk AC razor. It was a very easy, no non-sense shave.

Good to see you on the forum this evening. I'm watching the football game and checking TOST now and again and it felt like a ghost town. I wonder if folks are not as active due to the issues with posting?
Yea, it is a pain to click reply just to view the comments. It is like secret coded messaging.

That's right, Jim. The SSSC, Secret Squirrel Shaving Club! (squirrel emoji here)
I'm not sure if this was a thing in your Army days, but SSSC was the Self Service Supply Center where supply sergeants went to buy office/cleaning supplies and the like. Running out of toilet paper is not a new thing!  Now days they are run by GSA and I'm not sure if there are physical stores anymore vs. ordering online with a government purchase card.

Pre - Shower, Cold water face rinse
Brush - Simpson Wee Scot
Soap - OSP Sandalwood
Razor - Colonial General V2
Blade - Feather PB (6)
Post - Cold water Rinse, TC's infused Witch Hazel
Balm - Barts Balm Amber and Moroccan Jasmine Balm & Lotion

Oh man, that was a hard choice considering what turned up in the post today, saying that i have waited a long time so another day will not make a lot of difference.
The General V2 is an SE master in my books and gave a sterling performance today. All good.
Stay safe and enjoy your day All

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