La Toja shaving stick bowl lathered on heated wax heater. Homemade 18mm fan synthetic knot brush. Single pass with Gentleman Barber shavette 1/2 DE Marisho blade. Followed by Witch Hazel used as pre electric lotion for touch up with Paul Anthony Travel Shaver, Ponds Cold Cream and cold water splash to finish. No nicks virtually BBS. Nice, lovely skin post shave texture !

I've come to the conclusion I don't like the IBC Clone
The Personna Injector Blade worked just fine
I just don't like the geometry of the shavette

I'm getting comfortable with shaving whenever I get the time. Not because I want to be comfortable with it; after all, there are reasons why things should happen at particular times. I can be a bit obsessive about that...:)

But to the matter at hand. I think I'd call it a BBS, but only now that the aftercream has soaked in. I thought maybe the Woody didn't take off as much as on previous outings, but it seems a bit early to change out the blade with only five uses on it so far. The same blade in an X1 slant lasts nine or 10 shaves.

O.H.
