Great shave yesterday with the Le Coq Cage Head and two stacked blades. I really enjoy shaving with a different razor every day. With my face and noggin practically healed, I decided to shave with my Eclipse Red Ring. I really enjoy this razor. It’s an incredibly efficient English design from the late twenties/early thirties, and always delivers a great shave. I decided to shave with Tabac since I’m out with the TR6 with some friends later, and hopefully the open air cockpit will help to dissipate the scent, so SWMBO doesn’t suffer.

The Eclipse Red Ring razor head design has been copied by modern artisans. Any owner of the Occam’s DE need merely compare the aggressive baseplate to the baseplate on the Red Ring. The Red Ring is a two piece design whereas the Occam’s is a three piece, but one immediately sees the similarity upon comparison. In any case the Red Ring is a highly efficient, some might say aggressive design, one I like a great deal, as it always delivers awesome shaves. This shave was exactly as expected! Two and a half (WTG, ATG, ATG) passes later I was in BBS land with some alum-revealed slight heat around the healing Adam’s Apple area, but otherwise cool, clean and refreshed on both dome and face. Great shave!
