Midday tidy-up;

Variant (#4)
Super Max platinum (#1)
OSP Bay Rum
Midas Synth

Long time since I last used the OSP Bay Rum - great stuff, it'll be used more often herein I'm sure! More slickness than you can shake a stick at. Coupled with the Parker which has, so far, had limited airtime, and you have a great pairing. Super Max blade was a little rough for the first 1/4 of a pass, but smoothed out exceptionally quickly. It seems like one of those blades which would benefit from a delicate palm-strop. 2 passes and a couple touch-ups and I'm super smooth! A much needed, zen-like shave to break up my day.

Roll up, roll up!

Vulfix 404 mixed
Vitos Super Red croap
PAL Injecto-Matic de Luxe
Schick Proline [ 8 ]
Alum Rub/Rinse off
Pitralon Original A/S Lotion

Another Injector Shave, this time one equipped with an AC blade. I have found that this blade calms down the little PAL which many find a harsh shave. It is my favourite non adjustable Injector that only takes a single blade .

As usual the finished Shave quality is pretty good, though it was obvious that from a tendency of the blade to tug, that after 8 uses the blade was past its best. Will be interesting to see how a Schick fares tomorrow with a Proline, which is also nearing its optimum usage.

Standard equipment @work this morning. Sputnik blade as usual, 6C on plate 5 as usual.

The brush is horribly small, but does the job, too.

A wonderful 3 pass BBS shave, Enjoy yours!

Mamba (Halo handle), Super Max BDT. With two shims the Mamba is still a very mild razor but managed just fine a two pass plus BBS head shave which is what I expect from a mild razor. Next head shave will try without the shims.

Really enjoyed the Wholly Kaw as usual...just feels so luxurious !
Didn't get as close as I would of liked with the blade but it was the 3rd and final use ! Overall a nice shave I feel much better and I'm ready to have a bite to eat and relax in front of the TV for the evening !!

1st time use of Edem Soap from Greece, very nice nutty scent, however it disappeared after 30 seconds. 1st use of the razorock brush so maybe that didn't help. Will try again.
