Today is 03–17-2025 is Day 76 of 2025.
Razor: Vintage Gillette - Super Speed Tech, No Notch 1947 (My Birth Year)
Blade: DORCO Stainless Blade - Made in Vietnam - DAY # 2 USEAGE.
Bowl: N/A
Soap/Cream: Cremo - Refreshing Mint, smells is great.
Brush/Instrument: Fingers/Omega Boar
Extra Stuff: Witch Hazel
Today used my Vintage Gillette - Super Speed Tech, No Notch 1947 (My Birth Year) Shave was three passes, with, across, & against the grain, using a DORCO Stainless Blade - Made in Vietnam, chops down Beard like Hot Knife Cutting Cold Butter, easy as 1, 2, 3, Blade is Super Sharp, and Efficient. Today was DAY # TWO for using this Blade, came out of my Orphan Blade Ziplock. Fell in love with this orphan, as it was first use ever of this Blade. Love this Blade, its double wrapper does great job of protecting, and it’s not pricy.
Shave today was Dam Fine Shave but did not achieving perfection rating, would be 9.8, Close to BBS. Results were great because I payed a lot of attention to Technique, Head Angle, and Pressure, reaped rewards, of DFS for doing so. I do not chase BBS, but still got Another Great Shave.
Using newly opened fresh Tube of Cremo - Refreshing Mint, Black Cap, No 90 day supply nonsense on tube. This scent is very very nice, it doesn’t knock you over, but scent is present. It leaves a slight tingling sensation like menthol post use. Still working in the Cremo into my beard with my Omega Boar, it seems to helped getting Beard to stand up for closer shave. Working with Brush on Face don’t lather Cremo much, but seem to help raise Beard for Shaving off.
I am a Vintage Gillette Junkie, That is almost all I own, Vintage Gillette’s work well for me, never failing to give a Dam Fine Shave with New Sharp Blade. I can’t imagine much better results from a modern super razor. Sorry but people need to try a Vintage Gillette if they haven’t with an open mind, if they don’t own one. Think of about snagging a Tech, Super Speed, or Slim adjustable as a First Vintage Gillette. IMHO a Vintage Gillette’s are a lot of bang for the buck.
