Thursday!
Rooney S1 S S
1959 Gillette Fatboy w/Feather
Pre de Provence Soap
Thayer's Rose WH
Nancy Boy AS Gel
Coral Skin Food
Fatboy + Feather + Pre de Provence = One helluva shave. I think I'm going to dump the Derbys and stick with Feathers, I just get better, more comfortable shaves with these blades. And don't get me started on this soap- it's fantastic.
SOTD November 6-12
Thursday,
Rooney 1 Small Super
Moss Scuttle
Speick cream
Gillette Rocket
English Wilkinson blade
True Gentleman lavender balm
Taylor's Mr. Sidney A/S
There have been some posts about the Rocket on the Razor Forum recently which got me thinking about mine. I hadn't used it in quite a while so I decided to give it a try with my new favorite blade. The shave was better than I remember, probably due to the Wilkinson blade and the fine Speick cream. Good stuff.

Merkur blade
C&E best badger brush
Bigelow eucalyptus cream
GFT Coral skin food
Proraso ASB, cause I like the smell better than the Coral

Great shave today, I treated my beard with conditioner while in the shower, worked great. My TOBS avocado and alum block should be here today, so I can't wait for tomorrow.

Friday:
Col Conk bay rum soap
Gillette slim adjustable
Derby blade
Sharps Kid Glove aftershave
This was my first shave with this soap (actually, any shaving soap for that matter), and it was quite nice. A really nice aroma, but not overpowering.
Also my first shave with the adjustable. I started on 1, but finished up the last pass on 2 because I wasn't getting quite close enough. I didn't get as close a shave as I have been getting with the HD/Feather combination I've been using for the past week, but I wasn't expecting to. That will come with practice.
