Kampfe and Gem wedge

Great shave although it started badly with the Star wedge, swapped it for a Gem wedge blade and got a very close shave in two passes.

HOLY COW!! That is beautiful! There are not enough words to say how nice that is.
Thanks, it's been a while since I used this Kampfe with the wedge. Great shaves, it must be the ultimate adjustable with two sets of screws an advantage that was lost with the advent of springs and stops.

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

Interesting brush handle.

Thank you. I made the blank for this one then turned it on a wood lathe. It's black Linen material, aluminum foil shavings and 2 part casting resin. I also made the brush that is my avatar. That one is Black Linen, Brass shavings and fiberglass resin. I've only made 3 blanks myself but have made a fair amount more brushes.

I have a 1898ish head but the screws are missing. The blades I have are worn enough that they really need the adjustment to work.
Happy shaves to ya!

Menthol Monday's Shave
[Image: zcws.jpg]

Cold Water Rinse
Kiss My Face Shave Cream
Jayaruh #144
Razorock Black Hawk
Feather Professional AC
Osage Rub

The Kiss My Face Shave Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #144 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Razorock Black Hawk razor with a Feather Professional AC Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
