An easy shave today with the ever dependable Christopher Bradley Stainless Karve, such a comfortable razor to use, Tooled up today with the NOS Gillette Bleue Extra kindly gifted by @Blademonkey on its 5th outing and still working very well. I will definitely be giving it another run out.
A nice Face lather with the handmade Jayaruh #355, this knot is very similar to the Razorock Plissoft knot in my RR4 and it did a great job of the OSP soap, a very nice slick lather and plenty for the shave.
A traditional 3 passes WTG, XTG & ATG for a BBS finish.
A nice post shave setting me up for the day. Mrs TC completed an 11hr shift at the Hospital yesterday and is back today for another 8hrs shift, so proud of her.
Stay safe and enjoy your day All.

Carbon Shaving Ti-Titan

First bowl lather shave for years, as I normally face lather.
I must say, that my general lathering technique must have improved considerably as the bowl lather was really really good.
As a result I had a very rewarding shave.

Wishing all a nice Sunday
