Re: SOTD: February 10 thru February 16
SUNDAY EARLY AFTERNOON
PRE: QED Clay Face Soap
SHAVE SOAP: Valobra puck, Cologne
BRUSH: Simpson Duke 2, Best
RAZOR/BLADE: Gem "Push Button," with Gem PTFE SS (1)
POST: ,,,, Crystal alum deo stick ... Clubman styptic pencil ...Clubman A/S .... Clinique for Men Post Shave Healer
Interesting shave; 2 1/2 passes to get a DFS+ shave with just one tiny nick. As the Push Button with fresh blade glided
over the lather, the silence was deafening.... none of the accustomed sound of whiskers being slain. So my initial sense
was that it was a merely mediocre first pass. But when rinsing my face, I realized it was a far better effort. The next
1 1/2 passes were simply slick icings on the cake. Give some credit also to the great lather the Valobra puck offered up!
I will ride with the Push Button for the 4 shave blade life to see if it justifies a more frequent place in the Gem rotation.
