- Prep: Rite Aid Skin Cleansing Cream & Hot Towel
- Brush: C&E BBB
- Cream: TSD Almond
- Razor: '02 Kampfe Bros Star Lather Catcher Style SE
- Blade: Ted Pella PTFE Coated SE (shave 6)
- Oil Pass: Leisureguy's Last-Pass Shave Oil
- A/S: Nivea Extra Sensitive ASB
- EDT: SCS Blend 2-11 EDT
- Result: Not a pleasant shave. The Pella seemed to go away much quicker than usual. A load of pulling and tugging. Actually used my Eversharp-Schick Injector for the Oil Pass. DFS though and no blood.

Saturday:- Soap: Prarie Creations EO Blend
- Brush: Semogue LE #56
- Razor: 1912 Travel Gem / PAL (day #2)
- A/S: WH followed by Iced Signature
OK... a Pella on shave 6?? I can't get past shave 4 on those... Speaking of which... I couldn't get past shave 2 on this PAL... Honestly... I didn't quite make it through shave 2 with good results. I had to use a 4th pass with another razor to get passable results. I think I may have stropped it with the ER stropper before shave 1 and I wonder if that is what caused it to be so meh...

Prep: Hot shower with Suave conditioner
Brush: Omega Badger
Soap: VDH
Razor: Ornate handle brass 1912
Blade: GEM/Personna
A/S: Aqua Velva
Been using the G-Bar but today decided to go back to the 1912. As usual a very nice, close shave. I tend to go to fast with the GEM's, just like I do with an injector but today I forced myself to go really slow. I think that added to the overall quality of the shave.

Saturday shave on the road with the 1918 WWI Damaskeene set.
Gem Damaskeene PAL Blue Blade D-1 Synthetic Burma Shave brush Williams Mug Shave Soap WH Aqua Velva (smells just like)
Great shave on the road. The WWI set packs nicely and is a great little razor. WOO Indeed.

Geesh, I forgot to post my Saturday shave yesterday so here it is:
- Prep: Rite Aid Skin Cleansing Cream & Hot Towel
- Brush: Ever Ready C40 Boar
- Soap" TSD English Fern Type Soap
- Razor: Eversharp-Schick G1 Injector
- Blade: Ted Pella PTFE coated injector (shave 3)
- Oil Pass: Leisureguy's Last-Pass Shave Oil
- A/S: Thayer's Lavender Witch Hazel Toner & AOS Lavender ASB
- EDT: Nine Flags Aromatic Tabac from Brazil
- Result: Ooooo! A fine BBS shave. The TSD English Fern Type soap did a great job with the slickness and cushion that I am used to with TSD products. Had trouble at first making the lather, until I added some water to the brush. Kinda shook the brush too much before I began to make the lather. Though not a soap like my Tabac or MWF, the TSD soap did provide a great shave. I recommend it.
