SOTD - November 2025

Saturday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Vintage Life Morning TOST
Jayaruh #424 Synthetic
Gem Clog-Pruf
Gem Reversible
CWR
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Pinaud Special Reserve

Well, Open Comb OCtober is over. Thirty-one shaves with 31 different open comb razors. It was a blast. We now have November.

The Vintage Life Morning TOST Shave Soap was face-lathered well with Jayaruh #424 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gem Clog-Pruf Razor and the Gem Reversible Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Pinaud Special Reserve Cologne. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I found a Gem Reversible Blade that had no rust on the edge and decided to give it a try. One edge was a little rough so I flipped it around and used the second edge. It was acceptable.

Nice picture and shave. Good to see your post. I have been wondering where everyone has gone to. I may go there too.
