February 1
Today was day 3 with the Grand Shave King Self Lubricating Razor. I got a great lather by face lathering the Ghost Town Barber with a L'Occitane Plisson Synthetic. As [MENTION=71645]Bobcat[/MENTION] just stated, the Ghost Town Barber makes great slcik lubricating lather with very little loading time. The scent is a mild outdoorsy scent and is quite enjoyable. The shave was good. but the razor is just a little mild. I need to do major buffing to clean up around the jaw line and the chin area. The DOC is just better overall with this aspect of the shave. Tomorrow will be day 3 with the DOC and the Fat will be the choice of soap.
