Another terrific shave with the razor paired with the well-used blade. Still no signs of blade deterioration. Still giving a smooth comfortable and surprisingly efficient result. 3passes without any issues for a bbs/dfs finish. The matching aftershave is just super...

SOTD FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 3, 2022

Just a good mug shave this morning with the Wade & Butcher 7/8. Unfortunately, it wasn’t even close to the quality of my Iwasaki shave yesterday. Even though the razor went through the same honing progression, “ye olde Sheffield steel” couldn’t hold a comparable edge to the Iwasaki’s Swedish silver steel. But then again, a century’s improvement in steel technology can’t be dismissed lightly. Don’t get me wrong; three passes led to a very smooth result. I guess I’m now just a dyed-in-the-wool Japanese and NYS steel straight razor fanboy.

I’ve spent the last few dome shaves using my Durham Enders Speed shavers and the Eclipse Red Ring yesterday. While that shave was ok, it wasn’t quite as good as the prior Speed Shaver shaves. In fact, there seemed to be more stubble than usual. So I grabbed the nickel plated G.E. Jones Shake Sharp SE which hasn’t seen much use lately. Then I grabbed two Feather DE blades, carefully stacked and loaded them into the razor and had at that stubble! Two ATG noggin passes and all was right with the world. All in all a decent overall shave that left me acceptably smooth from neck to noggin.

RAZOR: Wade & Butcher 7/8 (Mug), G.E. Jones Nickel Plated Shake Sharp SE (Dome)
BLADE: 2 Stacked Feather DE (Dome)
PREP: Cold water rinse followed by a heavy scrub with Argan Oil
BRUSH: MrEE LE #007 Knurled Aluminum Handle Hybrid Knot
SOAP: Mitchell’s Wool Fat
POSTSHAVE: Cold water wash with brush squeezings followed by a rinse with Humphreys Lilac WH. Finished with Pre de Provence Bergamot and Thyme AS Balm.
