Derby Extra (3rd use, probably should’ve used a new one)

Clubman Pinaud AS

Rating: 7.

It would’ve been higher had I used a new blade. Also, I have two super speeds I rotate. The other has a BiC Chrome Platinum Blade. Im slowly switching over most my razors to the BIC. I started with Derby because of price and how forgiving it is to new shavers.

Switching razors from vintage to modern. This was my first shave with my Wolfman 2 in many months. First impression is it’s not as smooth as the Gillette razors from the early 50s. Some of those razors, IMHO, define smoothness in a TTO.

9/10

Great shave this morning. Tried a new tool for cutting just the right amount of shave soap out for a 2-3 pass shave. I don’t know why I’m so obsessed with using just the right amount of soap for each shave. The soap is a software that is supposed to be used and replaced. I just think I feel wasteful if I used more than I should. I know most just swirl the brush in the soap container for transfer and I have done that and it works fine. I am just always looking for new ways to do things. They may not be better but it’s always fun to try new things which I feel this community can relate to.

Slight irritation due to the closeness of the shave. Very much on the verge of being a BBS shave, but I found a couple of places where there was some short stubble left. Still a very easy and pleasant shave.

Comments	Today I decided to go with my Feather AS-D2 razor. Whenever I use this razor, I also use a Feather blade. This blade is perfect for this mild razor. I did my usual four-pass shave and the result was perfect. Today’s brush was a Shavemac 28 mm synthetic. The Haslinger soap I am using does not come in a container, so I put it in an empty container. Unfortunately, the container I used was small. It was a challenge to swirl the brush to load sufficient soap. The Haslinger was on its fifth use. Nevertheless, the lather was good, and I got a perfect shave. Have a wonderful day and weekend, folks.
