[Shaveguru]

September has arrived, and Single Edge SEptember is here with it.
Are you daring enough to spend the entire month using just single-edge razors?
Join in the adventure and share your SE SOTD below. Who dares wins!

Unfortunately having a Tatara DE arrive, it comes along and pisses on my party on the second day of thirty.

A whole month without using a new toy which has taken 4 weeks to get here? What do you take me as? You'll be telling me Boris Johnson has resigned next.

Already used an SE for most of August and have some things in the SE arena to try so why not.

A reminder that I'm a flaky individual so there's a high probability I'll drift on to something else.

I only use SE these days, as they seem to work better for me than DE.

Shout out to Eric (MaineYooper) for following thru and setting up the acquiring of a Gem Micromatic handle from a broken razor. I have wanted one of these for a little bit but never followed thru with the member on another forum that makes them. Now I have it and decided to hook it up with the Vector for it's first outing but they look better on the older vintage razors to me and will be using it there mostly. How's that for my typical run-on sentences. Have a great day Folks !

Just realised if I shave with an SE this month I'll have to report it three times. Curse these loveable rogues.

I'm a "Slacker" and only posting twice Meaning here and the SOTD and skipping the SE thread....

Thanks Arthur
With your kind assistance I got a few razors and a brush handle done. I really enjoyed my first 3D shave and I'll look forward to using them over the next few weeks and beyond.

Cheers

Razor: Repeating Injector Type "C"

Soap: GD Mallard Coconut Rum
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: Rooster's Nest Bourbon Bay Rum
Fragrance: Ferrari Scuderia Black
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1,398

I find the Type A the coolest and the Type C the sleekest head that gives me the best shave out of the 3 Repeater's. All require the head held differently than most razors against the face and hand position.

And for the Eeewww shot of lather removed.......you were warned. Have a great day !

Is that because it catches lather by any chance?
