Gillette New Improved (1924) Shave

Shave of the Day
July 31, 2013
Grandpa’s razor week

•Tabac soap
•Muhle badger brush
•Gillette New Improved razor
•Astra blade (3)
•Pinaud Clubman Club Royale aftershave

Day three of the New Improved. I am getting used to the way it shaves.

I see a lot of similarities with the short comb NEW.

The Astra continues to perform well.

Tabac is a great soap with a strong scent. The Clubman Club Royale pairs well with it.

EverReady 1924

Shave of the Day
July 24, 2013
Gem/EverReady Week (2)

•Tabac soap
•Kingsley badger brush
•EverReady 1924 Shovelhead razor
•Gem Stainless Steel blade
•Clubman Club Royale aftershave

The Tabac soap is a great start to a great shave. It lathers easily, provides good lubrication, and has a unique scent. The EverReady 24 has an easy to access blade and shaves closely and efficiently. The Clubman Club Royale pairs nicely with the Tabac.

Before you ask, the Club Royale is vintage and no longer made.

Next up, the Gem Micromatic Open Comb.
