Saturday afternoon:

Vitos SIS
Semogue 610 boar
Gillette Slim set to 9
Vintage Gillette "The Spoiler" (4)
handcrafted menthol AS

It would take a truly terrible blade to not perform with this razor at this setting. This blade isn't terrible. This is the first really good shave I've gotten with this blade. This shave was just as comfortable as the others, but I expect a very close shave AND comfort. This is the first of those.

Muhle R89 with Derby
Rudy Vey custom brush
TOBS shave cream: Sandalwood
TOBS aftershave gel: Sandalwood

The gel is a tad sticky at first but somehow miraculously soaks in for a nice matte finish. Good stuff.

My 888 (my first) just arrived today, its a matter of time before I buy another RR (my second) soap. Enthrall me with the tale of this soap if you wouldn't mind. Its name sounds like it will smell good.

Funny how that happens, huh?[/b]

Pre-shave soap: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Razor: iKon OSS
Blade: Super Iridium
Brush: Vie-Long Gonzalo (04102) Boar/Horse
Soap or Cream: Mitchell's Wool Fat
A/S: Thayer's Lemon Witch Hazel, Meehan Bay Rhum

Ahhh...a great shave this morning! I hadn't shaved with an Iridium for many moons, so decided to pull one out from my stash to try in my iKon. As expected, it did a fine job of mowing the stubble, and the shave was silky smooth and comfortable. The MWF is always a joy to use and the Meehan Bay Rhum provided a very fragrant and stimulating finish.
