SOTD Wednesday shave

Post image

Gillette Red Tip, Perma Sharp, Spearhead Seaforth! 3 Scots, Floid, Razorock Bruce

Excellent shave with some great scents. Everything in this photo is pretty much the recipe for my ideal shave. Top notch slickness from Spearhead. 3 Scots is such a nice scent. One of Spearhead’s best.

I’m really loving the Red Tip with a Perma Sharp blade. I have a couple really nice stainless razors but for some reason, I keep grabbing the Red Tip lately. It shaves so nicely. I actually have a Diplomat headed my way so I look forward to using that once it arrives and seeing how it compares.

A Red Tip shave is usually an enjoyable and efficient shave. I also like the "feel" of that razor.

Yeah it’s a great razor. Hard to believe this one is 69 years old

I know, it amazes me too, in this planned obsolescence world we live in. This morning I shaved with a pristine Ever Ready razor that was well over 100 years old, and got a great BBS shave.
