    Default SOTD February 1st - February 7th

    OK, guys, tomorrow's Superbowl Sunday and in honor of the biggest American sporting event, I was thinking of doing an American shave, with good ol' US Steel (OK, I'd have put in a plug for the Steelers but I'm rooting for the Cardinals), soap, aftershave what have you. Heck, maybe American razors for the week!

    Everyone's welcome to join in!

    Sixgun told me to make sure and post that this is by no means obligatory, and no one should feel left out. It should be a fun theme for the SOTD!

    34 Reade St., New York City
    ca. 1903-1907; later became the Gem Safety Razor Co.

    That's where my razor today started off over 100 years ago, it ended up in my collection for one reason, G.E.M. yep my initials are stamped right there in the tang.. I mean you have to buy it right, and heck it actually is a very smooth shaver... I picked it today because it was the best match for Steelers colors I had, and it is American Steel


    Überlather:
    Shave Cream: AOS Sandalwood
    Shave Soap: Honey Bees Spas Vanilla Sandalwood

    Razor: 5/8 GEM Spike Point
    Brush: ShaveMac 28mm Silvertip
