SOTD September 1 - September 7
Re: SOTD September 1 - September 7
Tuesday night:
Razor: Schick Injector, Type L
Blade: Schick Super Chromium
Brush: Semogue 730 (silvertip)
Soap: Valobra Shave Stick remnants pressed into a new cake of Mike's Natural, Lime.
Lather made in the soap bowl.
2 1/2 passes
Cold water rinse and AoS Ocean Kelp Aftershave.
I thought I would give the Type L Injector another try but found it very harsh. It might benefit from a fresh blade, but that wouldn't eliminate the harshness. It's just too aggressive. The Gillette Injector I've been using is very mild and easy to wield, but I don't get a very close shave with it.

Finished up a tour through my Soap Commander scents. This is definitely a favorite soap of mine; right up there with MdC & Catie's Bubbles. I look forward to seeing what else the Seibert's come up with in the future.
Also, I was fortunate enough to be in the first batch of the Mongoose Razors release. I am hopeful that it will arrive this weekend so that my Sunday Special shave will be even more so.

Dovo 2Bismarck Pearl, 6/8 Full Hollow, Round point
On the road again. This time I am traveling with this Dovo 2Bismarck Pearl, not so fancy however it is doing its job. And, yes, it does not compare to a Mastro Livi razor at all but I am however glad because I took with me the lovely Mastro Livi Travel Loom Strop.
