Tuesday Terror Shave
Razor: E2 Fat Boy
Blade: VDH
Brush: West Coast Shaving 28mm silver tip badger in faux horn handle
Soap: B&M Terror
Aftershave: Nivea post shave balm, followed by Terror balm
Mug: Dad's 1976 Old Spice mug
So today I decided to try out my recently purchased E2 Fat Boy, set on 4, based on the last setting on my Slim Adjustable, which was set on 3.5.
The VDH blade was on it's second use, used yesterday in a P1 Super Speed. Not sure what the issue was, but the shave wasn't as good. Had a few tugs, and one little weeper on my neck.
Still, aside from that, that overall shave was pretty close, just a little stubble on the adam's apple. Some short lived irritation around the same area of the weeper. The Nivea fixed that pretty easily, and the Terror has my face feeling nice and cool.
The 28MM brush is a bit too big for the OS mug, so I will stick to 26mm and under for mug use. The yellow fleamarket bowl will get the used by all the brushes.
This shave gets a 8.5, based on the tugging and the little weeper.
