Thursday morning:
Pre shave: Noxema cleansing cream
Mem Olive cream
Semogue 620 brush
Razorock Mission razor
Voskhod blade (1)
Stephan's Island Lime A/S
Not a very good shave today. Nothing wrong with the Mem lather. I have used the Voskhod blade in the Mission before with great results. Maybe I just got a bad blade. I'll trash it.

Prep: hot water wash with bath soap
Razor: 1922 Gillette Big Fellow New Improved
Blade: Super-Max Titanium (1)
Brush: Barbear Classico Mistura LE (#18/100) by Semogue
Soap: Mike's Lemongrass and Eucalyptus
Scuttle: None
Post: Thai Crystal deodorant alum stick and Thayers's witch hazel
Result: BBS in 3+ passes. Great shave. I actually did first pass with a straight razor, but I am not ready to claim it as such because I had to do the WTG again with a DE Still, I did not cut myself and actually accomplished some reduction with a straight (Griffon).
