SE SOTD, Friday, SEptember 30th 2022

Razor : Yaqi Excalibur AC 50mm + new Milano polished 316 SS handle- Mfg 2021> excellent upper mild to tame mid range, interesting simple clamping system, small head parts and I like to work over a wash cloth. I always get decent shaves with this Excalibur SE.
Blade : Feather Pro AC 50mm- sharp & smooth + reasonable longevity for a AC blade.
Soap : Ogallala Bayrum sage & cedar wood , nice scent of Bayrum + some clove, this soap works well with a pastier lather with a wet face and it will produce some nice slick lather, try not to perfect it in the bowl is my conclusion. Very enjoyable soap to master.
Brush : Yaqi Sagrada Familia 24 mm tuxedo knot, excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + excellent lather painter.
Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
Post shave : Ogallala Bayrum & sandal wood :001_wub: + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results :CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=:a17: Excellent shave with my Yaqi Excalibur with a AC Feather pro.

Have some great shaves!
 
Sorry, no photo, but I dug out my old Mongoose and put in a new Schick Proline. I sometimes forget how good this razor is. It's one of many razors I could happily use every day for the rest of my life, were it not for my love of variety!
