Dove Men's Face Wash
TOBS Lavender Shaving Cream
Frank Shaving Finest Badger
Ever-Ready 1914 (First Shave)
GEM Super Stainless
CWR
Thayers Cucumber Witch Hazel
Pinaud Clubman AS
Today was a first shave with my new Ever-Ready 1914. The TOBS Lavender face-lathered well with the Frank Shaving finest badger brush. There is a lot of blade exposure with this Ever-Ready, and it did sing. I took it easy, and ended up with a near BBS shave with two passes and a little clean-up on the neck area. Finished off with the Thayers Cucumber WH and Pinaud Clubman AS. Feeling clean and refreshed.
This razor, also known as the "little lather-catcher," is not a very friendly razor. It takes both hands to open, and then you need to be very careful to align the blade before closing the lid. As I said earlier, the blade exposure is great. It sings even more than the 1912s and is almost like shaving with a straight razor. For now, it is going back into my display case.
