Veterans Day
Armistice Day began to mark the end of the Great War.  The Armistice was signed on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month of 1918.  

Today’s shave is with a WWI razor.

Proraso green tub soap
Muhle badger brush
Gillette Milord (1940)
Kai blade (4)
Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue aftershave
Yes, I know that the Milord is my favorite razor.  I will be using other razors thus month.  The Cobra, the Merkur Progress, the Merkur and iKon slants, and the Gillette Black Beauty adjustable and the Fat Boy are all in the wings. So many razors, so little time.
