Tomorrow, I will be breaking out my AutoStrop VB1 to use the first five days of June. I like the AS razors, especially those that can use modified Gem blades.

I took the spine off the blade and nipped off the middle protrusion of the blade so it would fit in the AutoStrop holder.

Cold Water Rinse
Kiss My Face Cool Mint Moisture Shave Cream
Jayaruh #340 Badger
AutoStrop VB1
GEM Blue Star SE
CWR
Osage Rub
The Kiss My Face Cool Mint Moisture Shave Cream face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #340 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the AutoStrop VB1 with a GEM Blue Star SE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I had a great shave with my oldest SE. This Kampfe Star Lather catcher is a great razor and I love the way this bullet casing handle looks and feels on this razor. The casing is from the honor guard at my Grandfathers funeral. An unmentionable witch has a picture of a rifle on it was also involved. I figured it was a fitting combination.
