Razor : Razorock Lupo.72 2nd generation - Mfg 2021>, mid range. Perfect razor for my razor rotation and checks all the boxes for what I like to use. Excellent machining and finish QC with a nice efficiency range. The scalloped safety bar is a good idea for lather flow. Had a stellar close comfortable shave this morning.
Blade : GSB(2) sharp and smoooth with reasonable longevity. Top tier in my shave den space. It is a nice balanced blade that gives sharpness + smooothness blade glide and is not all sharpness so I call it balanced perfect blade.
Soap : Speick stick, nice mild spicy scent with excellent lather qualities. Very hard soap that lasts and is worth every penny spent.
Brush : Yaqi "orbital ring" 24mm boar bristle. Excellent lather generator, soft split ends bristle hairs, nice splay scrubber + great 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 : Witch hazel soap residual cleanse + Ach Brito cologne aftershave
+ a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results :
or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=
Had a stellar close comfortable shave this morning with my RR Lupo.72 with a GSB blade.
Have some great shaves!

ASRazor shave, April 8th, 2024
Razor : Ever-Ready 1914(AKA= Little lather catcher or LLC) with 1st generation blade stops. Mfg 1914-17, mid range. If a person likes audio feed back this is a excellent razor for that audio feed back and the ER 1914 shaves like a champion razor also. I get excellent shaves with this razor and sometimes I use a Rigs shim to calm it down a notch like this morning if I want a easy going shave. Had a close comfortable shave this morning.
Blade : Gem Personna SS PTFE(6) very sharp(the reason I mention it being very sharp is the amount or # of shaves it offers per blade, usually 10 for my self), excellent longevity, smooths out nicely, predictable + safest blade to handle.
Soap : Speick stick, nice mild herbal scent with excellent lather qualities. Excellent soap for a mass produced product + triple milled for excellent longevity.
Brush : Yaqi "sagrada Familia " 22 mm 2band badger. Excellent lather generator, pillow like soft tips, nice splay scrubber + great lather painter. Small handle but works like a charm for my shaving needs.
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 : Ach Brito Lavanda with witch hazel+ a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results :
or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= Had a close comfortable shave this morning with my Ever-Ready 1914 razor with a coated Gem blade.
