Greetings,

Another wonderfully relaxing sunday shave...

I purchased a job lot of 5 rounds of scottish fine shaving soap from Ebay well over a year now, i've experimented with grating and combined together the left overs of both the scottish fine shaving soap & williams shaving mug soap which created a superb frankensoap making a wonderful slick protective lather, and a leaves a outstandingly good post shave feel to the face.

A great soap which i will never get sick of shing with.The inexpensive Egyptian made lord razor paired together very nicely with the Parker P.P. blade making a wonderful non-aggressive, yet efficient duo.

A very comfortable 3 pass + pick ups enjoyable face stroking shave.

Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of Aloe Vera Gel.

My face is feeling smooth & smelling devine.;)

Enjoy your Sunday Ladies & Gentlemen.:cool:

Prep: Valobra Glycerlanolina soap,Antica Barbieria Colla Almond Oil Pre-Shave Cream
Brush: Saponificio Varesino Two-band High Mountain Manchurian White Badger;
Soap: Wholly Kaw King of Oud
Razor: Mergress XL
Blade: NOS Personna P74 Med Prep (8)
Post: Thayers Cucumber Witch Hazel, Antica Barbieria Colla Almond Oil Balm
Scent: Knize Forest EdT

First shave with the newly acquired Mergress XL. A very handsome razor, and feels great in the hand. I normally shave with my Futur set on 2, but have been enjoying slightly more aggressive shaves of late, so dialed it up to 2.5. It might seem strange to some that I loaded the Mergress with a blade on its 8th outing, but anyone who has shaved with a P74 will know that this makes perfect sense.
The Wholly Kaw lather was predictably excellent; three comfortable passes and I was smoother than James Bond at a cocktail bar.
Finished with the fresh pine-dominant fougère scent of Knize Forest. Tricky to get this right, but the Austrians have done a marvelous job.

I should almost start calling it Schick Sunday for myself, I like my Schick, GEM ..... razors and they usually deliver a nice shave when technique is good with a sharp blade. Schick made a lot of interesting (L type)theme razors also and I really enjoy that part of their history of injector razors.

Razor : Schick Canadian E2 injector- MFG 1930's
Blade: Personna SS PTFE injector (4)
Soap: Tabac
Brush: Yaki Cashmere knot 24 mm
Pre shave: Brush wash face with CeraVe hand bar soap + dab Aloe Vera gel on beard area.
Post shave: Dickinson's witch hazel
Post shave : Nivea balm + Fine fresh Vetiver AS with witch hazel
Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + aftershave indicated minor irritation + 2 tiny blemish weepers= :001_smile
