Prep – MR GLO
Razor - Mongoose Satin B2
Blade – Kai Sharp (3)
Brush – RV with Shavemac Finest
Lather – Captain’s Choice Sandalwood Test Soap
Post - Witch Hazel and Captain’s Choice Sandalwood AS





Very nice 3 pass shave this morning. Not BBS but close enough to scare the baby

I had emailed Captain's Choice to test a new sandalwood soap he his developing. The soap proved very easy to lather and proved to be very slick and provided good cushion. The scent of the soap was a perfect pairing with his sandalwood aftershave.

Gem Junior, with the black, fat plastic handle. Gem SS PTFE "Ted Pella" (3). Mike's Vetiver.

Unbelievable shave. That is, very close on two passes, with no irritation And not a thought of nicks or weepers. This razor was a gift from a good friend... Who told me he paid $4.00 for it at an antique store. Most bang for buck razor ever, maybe .
