Menthol Monday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Eskimo Tuxedo Shave Soap
Jayaruh #277 Silvertip Badger
Schick M-2 Adjustable
Personna Injector Blade
CWR
Osage Rub

The Eskimo Tuxedo Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #277 Silvertip Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Schick M-2 Adjustable Razor and a Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

The Bunny V2.2 handled a rushed Shave with 5 days growth exceptionally well yesterday. I used some of the @hendrixclassics Gunslinger sample. What a great scent and it lathered quite well even I a rush.

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #277 Silvertip Badger brush.

Last night.
Razor: New to me - Darwin SE safety razor.
Brush: Re knotted Rubber set handle.
Soap: Vitos Red.

This vintage razor set is amazing quality. I don't know if there is any connection to the double edge Darwin.
The case has a spare blade, double sided strop and an ingenious stropping mechanism.
I was initially concerned the blade bevel could be rusty. [The listing images were 50/50] but on arrival and introduction to my hones the edge is wonderful.
Despite the word "safety" on the container it is a straight razor on a stick. Care needs to be taken.
The style of this razor is very similar to the Rolls razor.

The shave was great.

It's nice to know that like the other days shave I can achieve a really good shave with the Bunny even in a rush. However it's even better when like today I can take my time and enjoy it and get an excellent shave.
