July 8 SOTD
King Gillette Weekend
Gillette ABC scroll work / Voskhod (3)
Stirling Earl Gray - sample
Vie-Long 4312 horse hair
Gillette ASB
Gillette Cool Wave AS
I tried to go and use as nany Gillette items as I could this morning there is only 1 more item I could use at the present time, and that would be a branded blade, either current production or vintage. The 4312 made good slick lather with the Earl Gray. The soap has a light aroma, while not unpleasant, is non-descript. The 106 year old razor is very efficient at removing facial hair. I am quite thankful it was sent in for repair in 1920. Finished off with Gillette balm and Cool Wave Splash. Have a blessed day gentlemen.
