Brotherhood of the Open Comb

Hey, folks! I haven’t forsaken the open combs, despite my long absence here, and I would like to get in on OCtober. I have been using my ATT SE2 lately and I will be getting my ATT S2 slant back from loan out, hopefully in time for OCtober. Plus I have my Old Types, Fatips, and Maggard's V2 OC waiting in the wings.
Anyhow, here is tonight’s OC shave:

Razor: Gillette NEW LC + DeFitch 3.8" Solid Brass Handle
Blade: Feather
Brush: Vie-Long 12750 Horse Hair
Soap: Stirling Executive Man
ASL: Blend of Stirling Executive Man & Fine Snake Bite

Thanks Juan, I like the Dorco Prime I would rate it at just below Voskhod. Not as sharp or smooth, but close. I think I've tried entire Dorco line of DE blades. I like the Prime and the ST301, The ST300 and the Titan I don't care for. As always YMMV.

I'm not a Russian blades guy... find them 'harsh' so to speak... YMMV indeed

Incredible shave with this OT. Despite the extra light handle... But this is probably the best 1920s head I've shaved with... All's good!
