Semogue 830
Goodfella Black
Treet Platinum

M&S amber AS

First class shave.The Goodfella worked fine but you know that one
False move and it would rip your face off.Needs a very very light touch.
 
Returned home from a short trip last night and in the post was a Merkur 34c acquired from the BST section, (Another great idea by the way) presented in as new condition. Try that in the morning I thought. 3 days on the cartridges is way too much for me now, it does not give me that sense of achievement somehow.

Shower
Merkur 34c
Astra Blue
Chinese badger Works very well with
Old Spice soap Bowl lathered
Pecksniff's ASB
TOBS Gentlemans A/S

What a good little razor this is, I just assumed that it would be OK but first class result. BBS no nicks at all. PS It looks very travel size to me. The Weishi could be on it's last legs.
 
Friday 13th September

Brush: NF 2041
Soap: Arko
Razor: EJ89 Barley
Blade: Supermax Blue Diamond- single shim
Post: Witch Hazel, Floid Vigoroso

Great shave. A return to the EJ showed me exactly why it's my favourite razor. These cheap blades are superb for me too. Not for everyone, but I get on very well with them. The performance from the Arko could well secure it as my favourite soap, something I've not really considered before. I have a favourite razor and brush, but I've not thought about a favourite soap before. Anyway, great shave. The Floid ended it very well indeed.
