I had a great shave with today's razor. This one is one of those extremely light aluminum baseplate and handle arrangements. I think it weighs in at 30 grams. Despite its light weight, it shaves superbly! Tonight's shave was a two pass DFS! Have a good night all!
 
Hello all, today, for Tech Tuesday, I used a vintage French Tech, and a Polsilver SI blade.

I don't know if this Tech was made in France, or England, it is unmarked as to country of manufacture, but it was destined for a French market. This light weight little aluminum Tech is a fantastic shaver. A two pass DFS for this shave! Have a great day all!
 
I've been using an NDC Ball end Tech this month for One Blade in February challenge, except for Blue Monday and Fatboy Friday. Naturally yesterday was Tech Tuesday! Blade is a Feather.
 
Well its Tuesday so another Tech came out. Today I switched to the Pre-war Tech. With a 14 day old Feather and some pretty poor soap it wasn't the greatest shave but I can't blame the razor at least.
 
Good grief! I forgot to post my Tech Tuesday :07:

From yesterday:
Ball-end Tech (NDC)
Feather (27)
Omega S-Brush
Stirling Executive Man soap
Dickinson's witch hazel
Brut Classic

Finishing up the one-blade February challenge. Decent enough shave but way too much work.
 
Tech Tuesday!

NDC Ball-end Tech
Nacet (8)
Omega S-Brush
Cella
Neutrogena sensitive balm
Brut Classic

Worked up a thicker lather than usual with the Cella and was rewarded!
 
Tech Tuesday!

Ball-end Tech (NDC)
Nacet (15)
Omega S-Brush
Cella soap
Dickinson's witch hazel
Nivea sensitive cooling post shave balm
