My ‘BlackWolf’ — 101mm Blackbird handle on a Wolfman WR2 1.25SB. The 101mm handle is my favorite, and so why not combine it with a favorite head?

Razor: Gillette Golden Tech- Mfg 1940's, mild razor, nice handling, always liked the Gillette fat handle, like to use a extra wide Kai SS blade to give it a boost with a little extra blade feel.
Blade: Kai SS (5) excellent blade, extra wide compared to a Gillette standard blade by .009" thousands of a inch, or .0045 per side.
Sharp & smooth with great longevity. A bit pricy but having a tuck in the den for those mild razors is nice.
Soap: Razorock Lavender, nice scent + excellent lather qualities.
Brush: Yaqi Moka express 26mm 2band badger- excellent lather generator, pillow like soft tips, nice scrub, great lather painter.
Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on cleaned beard area.
Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave: Razorock King Louis Lavender with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.
Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= :a17: excellent shave with my Gillette golden tech with a wide Kai SS Blade.

Have some great shaves!
 
Changing up my handle on the New SC to a Timeless Ti. I have two of the TiBam Ti New York handles, so this offers a little variety. I like this new Timeless handle, not as much as the TiBam NY, but enough that I will post one of my TiBam to BST soon.

Razor: Gillette New SC/Timeless Ti
Blade: Astra Superior Stainless
Soap: Ach Brito Mogno
Brush: Simpson Butterscotch Duke 3 Best Badger
Aftershave: Vintage Shulton Old Spice​
