The rumors of Williams being so hard to lather doesn't seem to be true for me, it works just fine! The photo is taken after the shave.

What a great example in putting an end to that urban legand!! Wonderful Photo.

Thursday

AUSTRALIA day today and I’ve organised a recreation leave day for tomorrow, so a long weekend for me. It’ll be taken up with helping my two eldest kids move into new houses, but a BBQ this arvo might be nice, and maybe a visit to the local pool on the weekend or EVEN camping.

I got the Klas Törnblom out this morning and was shocked to see the RP7 I’d put on the blade and pivot the other day hadn’t done it much good. I think I’ll need to get some jeweller’s polish.

I put a little bit of hot water into the Proraso soap container as I showered, like I do with my other soap (Crabtree and Evelyne). I’d never done this with Proraso and it improved it greatly. I soaked the brush as normal but really shook it well before swirling and the resulting lather was really quite oomphy. CSG, AxelH, Ryan82 and WeirdBob (and others) had a conversation about this on another thread here the other day; and their ideas and comments really helped. We never stop learning, do we?

Oh, BTW, the Vegemite has NOTHING to do with shaving, but EVERYTHING to do with Australia…

Welcome! That's a pretty wicked spike on that razor!

Awesome! This razor was always a good shaver but its been used enough to warrant a touch up. So a few laps on my Naniwa 12K and a good stropping and it was better than ever! So close and comfortable, I barely felt the alum pass over my face. I'm enjoying the Tabac too, which I've been neglecting lately.
