So in honor of Vintage April I went crazy and actually looked at my Vintage DE's as an option.

According to my research today was my first shave with a DE since August 2023 and it resulted in a DFS.

Also was my first ever use of a Lord Silver Star, pretty nice blade.

Razor: Gillette Old Type
Blade: Lord Silver Star (1)
Soap: Mike's Hungarian Lavender
Brush: Omega Jade Boar
AS: Pinaud Clubman

Hi,

Based on the latest report, it appears that Lucifer's Centurions are doing a bang-up job executing Baltar's orders to capture our patrol pilots.....
