This 3 piece Adam's is an open comb and has the Merkur head on the bottom of its fat handle..The blade plate is stamped Made In Germany..I've only seen three of them..I was told that they were produced in the 30's..Can anyone verify that?? Sorry I don't have a photo....

Good Wednesday morning all...

1012 Gem Damaskene w/ Pella
Semogue 1305
SRD Vetiver ss
Thayers Cucumber WH w/ aloe
Osage Rub
Nivea Extra Soothing a/s balm
Vetiver by Guerlain Edt

A very good shave this morning...I should have switched out the blade, however, as it is nowhere near as effective as it was for the first three or four shaves.

Omega Retaggio boar
C&E Sandalwood soap
Merkur 1904 DE razor
Dorco ST-301 shave 1
Thayer's a/s wh splash

Good, creamy lather again from the C&E soap. But. Not as much glide as I like, and the beard-softening effect is a notch below my favorites. Also a slight hint of tingling yesterday and today. So, this one will not return to the rotation, sadly.

Regards,
