Tuesday OCtober 2

Hitting 2nd, a 101 year old, 1918 Gillette Bulldog.

Bowl/Scuttle - GP12
Soap - Le Pere Lucien Savon du Barbier (A+in my book)
Brush - M&F
Blade - Feather HI SS (4)
Razor - 1918 Gillette Bulldog
Post Shave - OSMA Pierre alum, Baum.BE A/S balm, Floid SE Mentolado Vigoroso A/S

Shave rating 3.5 of 5

First shave with this razor, was kind of show only before. I really like barber pole handles. This razor has a problem with alignment of the blade plus I noticed a very slight hairline crack in the handle. I will need to look for a replacement. I was in a bit of a rush so I didn’t want to play with the blade alignment - one side was mild, the other aggressive - so I did a careful one pass, DFS shave. This soap is great, lather and lubricity are superior.

Looking through my stash to see what other century old Gillette razors I can pull out and use for the remainder of the week.

Happy OCtober and great shaves everyone.
