Shave of the Day (SOTD) Tuesday November 27, 2012
proxy.php

• Prep: Brush soaking in hot mentholated water, face washed with Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle Anti-Blemish Cleanser, luke warm shower
• Razor: Bright Nickel Canadian Tech monuted to T2 Handle
• Blade: Feather Hi-Stainless
• Brush: Semogue 620 Boar
• Soap: Tabac with added Menthol
• AS: Aqua Velva Musk with added Menthol
• Post: Cold Water Rinse, Double Splash of Aftershave

What matters is "does the razor get the job done" and the Tech gets it done. It take me 3 full passes and buffing to get a great shave but I never have that raw feeling no matter how sharp of a blade that I use. That means more to me that having a single pass shave but my skin being abused.

The Tabac with the added menthol was nice...the great lather and smell of Tabac, and the freeze of the menthol was a winning combination for me.
