Hi all,
I had a very nice shave this afternoon with the Timeless Slim Ti as I am not as familiar with this DE as I am with the other modern DE razors I have witch are mostly stainless razors.
It amazing and a credit to the razor and its designer how easy it was for me to get a smooth and efficient shave out of it with only a few tuning passes.
I myself favour high to very high efficiency (high to very aggressive DE razors) "for me its like twisting the dragons tale until it bites you" mild razor are not my preference.
So I was quiet surprized how smooth and close the Slim shaved.
I would not have this razor if it was not for a dear friend (and fellow forum member) who pick it up for me of the original owner at a great price as it a lot outside my budget for a razor.
A Lovely shave and highly recommended if you can get one or your wallet allows it. ;)

The Wizamet as with many DE razors (Not All) worked well in the Slim I will try a less forgiving blade next time to compare the results.

The TGS Solo worked up into a thick creamy lather in the bowl it provided good cushioning and good aftershave feel with great classic Italian scent.

The Cella original aftershave splash is always nice and complemented the soap well very nice.

One pass WTG one pass ATG and a couple of touch-ups done.
No nicks no worries.

I hope you all enjoy your next shave.
Cheers.

Friday's Cold Water Shave

Jayaruh #438 Synthetic
Fatip Grande
PolSilver
Cold Water Rinse
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Speick After Shave

The Speick Shave Cream face-lathered well with Jayaruh #438 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Fatip Grande razor and the PolSilver Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Speick After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
