Gillette New Improved

Shave of the Day
OC tober 7, 2013

DR Harris Windsor soap
Ever-Ready 200M boar brush
Gillette New Improved Razor
Shark Stainless Steel blade (2)
Pinaud Clubman aftershave
A nice close shave from the New Improved, but a bit more tug. Not sure whether it is the razor, the blade, or the angle. Love the Widsor soap. I bought the Windsor for the bowl, because I could not get a bowl with lavender. I will probably buy another bowl of Windsor.

It has been over a month since I have used the iKon open comb. I abandoned it for the slant. This razor provides an easy and comfortable shave. Aided by TOBS Lavender and finished with Skin Bracer. What a way to start the day.

iKon Open Comb

Shave of the Day
August 19, 2013
•Tabac!
•EverReady C40 boar brush
•iKon open comb head with Shavecraft bulldog handle
•Shark Super Chrome blade (3)
•Pinaud Clubman aftershave
Tabac is a great start with thick easy to build lather and a scent that is solid and classic (and I can't describe it).
The iKon head is configured to provide an efficient and close shave.
Clubman is a great finish to any shave.
I am waiting for the iKon Slant. Maybe Thursday. Phil at Bullgoose has been great with keeping me informed.
I also have a Fatboy on the way. It is going to be a good week.

iKon open comb bulldog handle razor

Shave of the Day
August 14, 2013

•D R Harris Windsor soap
•EverReady C40 boar brush
•iKon open comb head and bulldog handle razor
•Shark Super Chrome
blade (2)
•Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla

Second day with the iKon Shark combination. The Windsor soap provides excellent lubrication. The razor is a bit on the aggressive side, so I need to watch my technique.

Classic Vanilla is a great way to end a shave.

iKon Open Comb with Bulldog Handle

Shave of the Day
August 13, 2013
•Pre De Provence soap
•EverReady C40 boar brush
•Ikon Open Comb head, Bulldog handle
•Shark Super Chrome blade (1)
•Pinaud Clubman aftershave
The iKon Open Comb is a great razor. Added to my toolbox is the Bulldog Handle. The handle I bought with the OSS head was too long for my liking. The Bulldog handle is just right for me.
Pre De Provence is always a refreshing soap. The OC razor worked efficiently with the Shark Super Chrome.
The Clubman is always a great finish. A scent that you might remember from childhood, a visit to the barber, a scratchy neck from the hair, ...and the scent of Clubman.
