Saturday 17th July

Ganders Goat Soap w/Hop, Sage & Birch
Tcheon Fung Sing Professional (Red Brick)
DS Cosmetics Professional w/Synbad Synthetic 26mm
Hawk V3 (Regular Plate) & Feather Professional (6)
Brut Attraction Totale Aftershave

Ruddy great, that!

I switched onto the TFS professional brick soap and swapped the plate from the A to the regular. The shave felt exactly the same, but it was one of those where everything just came together right.

Soap Phoenix & Beau Spitfire
Brush DS Cosmetics 26mm Badger
Razor Gold Dollar 208
Aftershave Phoenix&Beau Spitfire Splash
Nice enough lather from the soap...overdid it as usual...the scent is just awesome, especially with the matching splash.
A good and satisfactory shave with this cheapest but most excellent razor. The edge feels so smooth and comfortable...only ever maintained on pasted balsa and now also with the Kanayama strop. 3passes for a dfs-ccs-sas finish without any issues.

Greetings,

A relaxing Sunday morning shave.

My introduction to injector razors earlier this year caused me to be instantly swooned by these remarkable razors.... The modern Parker InjRzr is a wonderful addition to the rest of my humble SE razor collection which has helped to further my passion for this traditional wet shaving hobby of mine.

A close comfortable smooth 2 pass + pick ups Injector razor shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Nivea Men Fresh Kick ASB.

My face is feeling super smooth and smelling divine. ;)

Stay safe, and enjoy your Sunday ladies & gentlemen. :cool:

Excellent three pass shave here in the Peoples Republic of Yorkshire with my Spitfire kit. It's my second favourite P&B scent after Iceni. It's just a shame there is no Iceni balm/splash left in the UK (and can't ship from overseas). Hopefully one day someone will find an unloved bottle at the back of their cupboard I can buy. All in all a reet good shave. Si'thee around.

A superb Sunday shave, the Signature soap and splash lending a lemony flavour to the proceedings, and the Blackland kit doing their thing with efficiency and style. What better way to start your day?
 
Sunday 17th July


Semogue 1800 Boar - Proraso Green - Feather SS (Japanese style)/Feather Professional - Proraso Green AS - Iceberg Twice EDT

This little Semogue has a very nice knot but it doesn't get used as much as it should. I prefer boar knots to look like boar knots and not try to look like something else.
2 passes for an excellent result:)
 
Prep: washed face in bowl of warm water
Blade: Treet Platinum
Razor: Rockwell 6S plate R4
Soap: Signature Soaps Wicstun
Brush: Omega Boar
AS: Speick
Moisturiser: Creave
Fantastic, fabulous, shave. Even after 1 week the Treet Platinum is still smooth and I didnt feel there was a blade in there thanks in part to the Signature shaving Soap. (Hello Brian! ).
My inlaws fly back to Ukraine tomorrow.I will miss them. Have a good weekend.
