Shave of the Day

Mongoose v Cobra
Taylor of Old Bond Street Lavender soap
Omega boar brush
Cobra with Kai Captain Mild (11)
Mongoose with Feather Professional (8)
Pinaud Lilac Vegetal

Both razors performed well. A real close shave. I give the Cobra points for maneuverability and the Mongoose points for design, materials, appearance, and ease of blade change.

The Mongoose wins but the Cobra lives to fight another day.

Taylor of Old Bond Street Lavender soap
Omega boar brush
Cobra Classic Razor
Kai Captain Titan Mild Blade (5)
Stetson Cooling Moisture Aftershave
I have not used the Cobra since July.  I guess I forgot to share the love. I am really liking the Stetson.  My local Walmarts have unreliable stock, but I can’t find a better price anywhere.

I have to make room for the Stetson.

Shave of the Day
August 16, 2013

•Arko stick soap
•EverReady C40 boar brush
•Cobra Classic Razor
•Kai Captain Titan Mild blade (5)
•Pinaud Clubman aftershave

The Cobra Classic is still my number one razor. I get a fast, easy, close and fast shave. I do experience minor difficulty in shaving the area just under my nose.

The Arko stick produces a great lather with little effort. Finishing with Clubman…it’s going to be a great day.
