    After the usual 1-2 minute hot towel prep:

    1964 rebranded Macys silvertip flopmeister fine for creams
    some kinda frankenrazor using a UFO 100mm Titanium handle stuck onna Stahly head/ Schick Super Platinum NOS 1969 blade
    XPEC original Original shaving cream
    Lucky Tiger AS and Face Tonic......great for hot weather
    Montale 'Intense Cafe' EdP

    This razor's a favorite of mine, especially when coupled with 5-6 favorite old blades. Even though the handle's a handful, being titanium keeps the weight down a bunch. Weighs only 70g plus another 35 for the head and done deal. Heh, the Stahly 'Live razor' head received new life from me years ago, after taking it off that silly original vibrating handle and trying it on handles of mine. Very well made base with the top cap being chromed so it shines like crazy. Quite a mild shaver so no problem using real sharp blades.

    Man, I am going through the XPEC but for some reason I don't feel guilty about probably not finding anymore old stuff. I am hoping to have enough for a few more years but who knows. Pretty much performs for me like a top tier soap.

    BBS results,

    Martin
