Occam's SE
#1
Friday May 14, 2021
Razor: Occam's SE
Blade: Feather Super (2)
Brush: Stirling Boar
Soap: Fuzzy Face Monkey Farts
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: Ethos Fresh Lime
Fragrance: CK One
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 919

Brought out my Occam because of some talk on DFS about it. Got a great shave with dot 2 plate and a Feather Super. My problem is the shaves don't usually last as long for me and the long ears make a good XTG near impossible on the above the lip region. Still a fun shave with the Monkey Farts which is a cherry/banana bubble gum scent. I just like the name mostly but it is a good soap base. Taking the day off for things around the house that need attention. Have a great day Everyone !!

I have seen those razors. They look simple. Which is appealing to me. No one ever seems to really like then though. 

I wonder why the shave would not last. A sharp blade running along the skin. Interesting.
Happy shaves to ya!

Actually yesterday's shave had some legs to it. I still ain't crazy about the razor as it is just such a  big/bulky head and the flatish handle isn't as comfortable on some stroke directions.

Yea I could see there that would not be the best to use. You have super good technique so I am sure it does work for you.
Happy shaves to ya!

Williams Week
Tuesday March 8, 2022
Razor: Occam's OREN
Blade: Feather Pro
Brush: Rubberset 400/Tuxedo
Soap: Vintage Williams
AS 1: Thayers Original
AS 2: Aqua Velva
Fragrance:
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1217

Soap is set for the week and other products are varying. I Have had a love/hate relationship with the OREN due to the fact it doesn't play well with Schick Prolines (my preferred AC blade) When I saw the Nano/open handle available on a BST I jumped on it for the price. I just had a shave that will rival the Vector and has me wondering if I should keep it or not..........WHAT?!?!?! Yes, that good of a shave result. Is it as sleek and maneuverable ? NO. Is the head as small and easy to get in tight spots ? NO. But it works and I got a great shave using a new Feather Pro blade with a dot 2 plate and for a fraction of the cost of the Vector....Has Dave thinking hard as he wants to minimize his modern razors in each category in the den. Have a great day Everyone !
