Shave of the Day
August 27, 2013

•Omega cream
•EverReady 200M boar brush
•Gem Micromatic Open Comb razor
•Gem coated stainless steel blade
•Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla aftershave

Day three of Gem week

I received the EverReady 200M brush a few weeks ago with a batch of razors. I washed it with shampoo. Now it smells like the boar is in my bathroom. I let it sit with Tabac overnight, but still has a boar smell. Hope it wears off soon. The brush has the softest boar I have ever experienced.

The MMOC is still the top Gem in my den.

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.

EverReady 1914

Shave of the Day

Gem/EverReady Week (2)

•Taylor of Old Bond Street Lavender soap
•Omega boar brush
•EverReady 1914 razor
•Gem stainless steel blade
•Pinaud Clubman aftershave

The Everready 1914 is a sort of mini lather catcher. My razor is a travel set. It gives a close shave, about as aggressive as the 1912. The cap flips open to reveal the blade. The hinge is opposite the blade edge.

The TOBS Lavender is one of my favorite soaps.

Pinaud Clubman is a great way to end a shave and start the day.

Next up, the EverReady 1924

EverReady 1924 Shovel head

Shave of the Day
Gem/Everready Week
July 19, 2013

•Proraso green tub soap
•Kingsley badger brush
•EverReady 1924 shovel head razor
•Treet blade
•Old Spice aftershave

A great finale to Gem/Everready week. My newly acquired 24 in gold. The 24 is an aggressive razor, but it is easy to open (and dry this carbon steel blade).

The shave starts cool with the Proraso and ends spicy with Old Spice.
