In my search for the best blade for the Timeless today the Gillette Wilkinson Sword.
A blade that works well for me in most DE razors
but certainly not in the Timeless, like the Gillette Rubie, it feels raw and not sharp.
Ready for a cup of coffee with ....
Have a nice day everyone.

Vitos Super Red

Schick Twin -Japan [ 7 ]
Pitralon Original A/S Lotion

I really have enjoyed the luxurious feel of the Badger Brush which I have used over the last few days. It has made me appreciate the qualities of brushes such as the little Omega 11126 boar. I have had it some time so it is broken in. Today worked up a great lather with the Vitos, and feels good when applying lather to the face. I think my boars and Synthetics will still get a lot of use, and will use the Badger for Special Shaves.

Needless to say with such a good lather, and a dependable Razor/Blade combo todays Shave was not only smooth and comfortable but a nice and close finish was attained.

New boar and new ASL. The boar is softer than I thought it would be and will only get softer so it might not make the cut. The Cheshire ASL is the usual B&M funny smell and not as nourishing as the Reserve ASL, but the Rex was it’s usual effective self and it’s a damn close shave without soreness.
