    Default Pretty good shave today

    I used my Parker PTW with a Astra Superior Platinum blade that already had five shaves on it. That was my last use off that blade as it started tugging at the end. I used some Noxzema as a pre-shave and put a little Cremo on face, then lathered up some Van Der Hagen Deluxe and used that as a top cushion layer. Sunday shaves are a special thing for me.
    The shave overall was very smooth. The old blade just glided through the whiskers and not one single nick, cut, or weeper. As I am still new to this type of shaving, straight or shavette, not wet shaving; the shave wasn't as close as I can get with my DE razor but really enjoyable. Quite a bit of the work week stress went down the drain with all the razor stubble. I finished off with some Canoe AS and all was good.
    I am ready for the next work week now. I hope y'all had just as good of a shave this morning. Happy Sunday.

    P.S. It's been an hour since I shaved and I still feel the slickness of the Cremo on my hands. I hope my wife doesn't try that stuff because she will take it over. Yes, I'm
