After a great shave last night, first time with a FaTip ... tonight, I just wanted a good simple pass, but I couldn't resist a second one to really give a lovely close shave. The DuBarry is not as fun as the T Type, but it's good, it works and it is give the self-same great results that all Durham razors do. Pretty much a "safety straight".

myrsol agua balsamica
trumpers wellington cologne

first try with the ikon head, and i like it. a very close shave, think it will take a few shaves with it to get the angles though.
