Gillette Aristocrat

Shave of the Day
July 15, 2014
Wet Shaving Products (WSP) Test Soap
Omega Boar brush
Gillette Aristocrat (1947) razor
Astra blade (2)
OS Signature aftershave

Although the razor is new to me, the head design is not.  

The soap has no scent. I lathered it from the smallest tin I have ever seen.   The lather took a lot of water and bloomed densely.  It was durable, slick, and easy to rinse out of the razor.  

If MDC made an unscented, this would be it.  

I am going to use it again tomorrow.

Gillette Black Handle Super Speed

Shave of the Day
September 14, 2013

•Arko stick soap
•Ever-Ready boar brush
•Gillette Black Handle Super Speed
•Gillette 7 o’clock Platinum Blade (3)
•OS Signature aftershave

The Black Handle Super Speed was the last iteration of a venerable line of TTO rasors. Not aggressive at all.

Arko produces copious lather (as long as I remember to use my brush.) The OS signature is a great finish.
