Comments	Today’s shave could have turned out to be a disaster. I did not assemble the Wolfman correctly and since I did not have my glasses on did not realize it. I started shaving and it felt very rough. I got one weeper on my mustache area. I inspected the razor and saw that I did not seat the blade in properly. Fortunately, I corrected the error and the remainder of the shave was just fine. The B&M soap was on its 28th use. Have a good one.

Sunday Schick shave, December 11th, 2022

Razor : Schick injector adjustable Model 3- Mfg 1970-72, excellent well built adjustable, one of my favorite Schick injector razors.
This razor will also take any Schick made blades from Regular blades to Twin II blades + gives some adjustment to the shave.
Blade : Personna SS PTFE injector (2) very sharp with excellent longevity. I have been experimenting with a blade hack lately.
Soap : Yaqi Musketeer rapier, nice scented soap(Aramis?) with excellent lather qualities. Nice soap, Yaqi commissioned Master Soap creations S.A. to make their soap & fragrance line products .
Brush : Yaqi Moka express 24mm synthetic, excellent lather generator, cloud like soft tips, gentle splay scrubber + excellent 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 : Yaqi Musketeer Rapier splash + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
Results :9/10 or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers= Excellent shave with my Schick injector adjustable M3 with a coated Personna injector blade.

And the price? well here in the UK as little as 0.75p.

Three farthings! That IS cheap.

 

[SharpieB]

Another Areffa soap from Ukraine today. Still obscure but I can see these soaps becoming popular quickly. Today’s soap has a bear fat base and they have others with badger fat. Performance is excellent.

Vintage GEM razor, YSL L’Homme and a Zenith boar brush. Excellent shave!
