SOTD September 24 - October 24

Another skinny razor, another great shave. This set of blades are smaller in every way. They’re midi-sized. Being a lover of Lunds I snapped them up years ago on eBay without realizing they weren’t full sized. Nevertheless, they provide great shaves.

Hot water preparation
MSC Vintage Spice Shave Soap
Savile Row 3824 Silvertip Badger
Lund 4/8 Saturday
Cold water rinse
Shulton Old Spice After Shave

Sunday's Shave of the Day

Cold Water Rinse
WSP Formula T Pumpkin Pie Shave Soap
Jayaruh #1 Badger
C.V. Heljestrand Lather Catcher
C.V. Heljestrand Blade
Leaf Branch SE Razor
Aqua Velva After Shave

The WSP Formula T Pumpkin Pie Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #1 Badger Brush. I did the first pass with the C.V. Heljestrand Lather Catcher Razor and a C.V. Heljestrand Blade. Then I gave in to temptation and finished with my new Leaf Branch SE razor to give me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Cold Water Rinse
WSP Formula T Pumpkin Pie Shave Soap
Jayaruh #1 Badger
Rolls Birth Year Razor (47)
Rolls Blade
Aqua Velva After Shave

This week everything stays the same except the razor. I am using each of my four birth year razors this month in honor of my birthday, October 15. I am using my Rolls Birth Year Razor (47) and a Rolls Blade this week. You can see the year of manufacture on the back of the blade.

The WSP Formula T Pumpkin Pie Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #1 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Rolls Birth Year Razor and a 1947 Rolls Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I'm surprised I don't see more people using this razor. It's excellent, IMHO. OC and CC in the same head. Very efficient but smooth. Reasonably priced for a SS razor as well.

Blade: Statum Platinum Chrome
Pre-Shave: PAA Cube
Shave Soap: PAA Atomic Pumpkin
AS: PAA Atomic Pumpkin
Brush: Grizzly Bay “Jack”
