Saturday, 3/14:

Razor - OneBlade Genesis
Blade - Feather FHS-10
Brush - Pennello Cavallo resin/horn 24mm HD silvertip
Soap - WCS Pear-Brrr Shoppe
A/S - Supply Arenella Coast

The blade notwithstanding, I really do enjoy using this razor. It provides a quick shave, is actually kind of in the middle in terms of mildness, and has decent efficiency. Yesterday's and today's shaves have ended up being very close, great results in my difficult areas, and very, very comfortable with no redness. Very nice!

This brush is just awesome. I don't know how a 24mm knot has bloomed this massively, but boy is it uber-luxurious on the face. A big soft cloud with just a little scrub, just perfect. Happy shaves, gents!

First time trying a Merkur 34c. Gave a nice, smooth shave but I found it quite a bit milder than my DE89. I had to go over some spots quite a bit to get as close as I like. The DE89 seems to have a lot more blade exposed when looking top down at the razor heads.

The 34c did leave me with a smooth irritation free shave, it just took me a little more work.

SOTD 3.14.2020:
One Day’s Whiskers
Hot Water
GD Rainforest Pre-shave
Tabac soap
M&F Brush
Razorock GC68-P

Working on lather technique. By reading threads, I learned to use more product and very gradually add water, while not “whipping” but instead stirring the soap. Immediate improvement! The RRGC68 is quite forgiving, and provides great audible feedback. A nice, smooth and rewarding shave. Happy shaving to all.

P.S., The M&F brush (which I recently acquired used) is a lathering beast.

How'd it go?

Terrific results, and no in-shave issues whatsoever. I'm curious about blade longevity (I used a Schick from a 7-blade dispenser).

Cool. I got a 500 J Hydro-Magic from someone on BST, but I've yet to try it out. I'm looking forward to seeing how it compares to the Supply razor.
