Thanked: 49Tried to keep it simple and cost sensitive tonight to remind myself that I don't need to spend a fortune to enjoy this hobby. I do have to admit going back to Williams after some of the things I've been using was a bit of a let down.
Pre-shave: homemade olive oil, castor oil, jojoba with sandalwood.
Scuttle: old school OS mug from Pop-pop.
Lather: Williams mug soap with a touch of glycerin.
Razor: vintage Schick injector.
Astringent: T. N. Dickinson's witch hazel.(can't seem to find Thayer's in my area)
Post-shave: Nivea ASB for sensitive skin.Last edited by tedh75; 04-25-2014 at 09:44 AM.

Thanked: 580ANZAC DAYGreat shave with the Bengall, probably why they were Army issue, although the old "Diggers" would have got the plain black one.
