Are you going to try it out for post-shave too, Jim?Today I used a new preshave. It works fine. It's got a prominent, but not overpowering, menthol thing going.
I don't hate menthol, but I don't love it for everyday use either. So, we'll see.

Sometimes it's fun to be unsure.Still, you never know.
I'm scraping the William's soap with a spoon and putting it in the lather bowl. It was a topic in another thread and I'm playing with the idea.I'm not sure I understand what you're doing in this photo. Could you describe it?

Vitos preshave. Wizamet SI (flipped) A little weeper to the right of my mouth and a tiny, painless nick on my neck (probably a decapitated blemish). | |
Overall, it was a good shave. Just not a bloodless shave. |
Chubby 3 in Manchurian | Semogue 2020 TSN LE Silvertip Badger | Rudy Vey Manchurian Tortoise |
Neither photo of the Rudy Vey Manchurian does a great job of capturing its color. To my eye, it is darker, and more like this. ➡ It's better looking and more subtle to my eye than any of the photos I took of it. Obviously, color is largely dependent on light. My photo of the Semogue and the vendor's photo look about right. Beautiful handle. |
I've lost track Jim. Is this a borrowed razor or bought? I know you have borrowed some not long back, and can't remember if this one is yours or not.
Neither, Al.
Awhile back I had and was using a borrowed Wunderbar, briefly. Its owner and I swapped razors for a little experiment we did together. I returned that razor.
Later, out of the blue, I received a "spare" Wunderbar from the same gentleman. A most generous PIF I think.
Pretty cool. The Wunderbar is a razor I've long been very interested in. Still interested in it. I hope I can eventually become skilled at using it. I think it has great potential. It is very efficient. The shaves are very smooth and comfortable. Problem is I draw a bit too much blood.
Happy shaves,
Jim
Wednesday's shave was very good indeed.
