A nice 2 Pass shave with buffing.
I find the OSP needs a little more work than the Whickams 1912 but the results are the same, a great lather and scent.
A great post shave routine finishing off with the OSP Spice road splash.
Good enough to be walking out with my Darlin' for a trip to the town, I could always pop into Superdrug to check out this Clubman soap ;).
So a nice return of the super efficient Sabre, a very comfortable face feel and smelling good.
Have a great weekend All.
Update.
No cheap clubman soap in my local Superdrug. I did get some Erasmic cream @ 0.99p and soap @ £1.99. though.

Sotd - Saturday the 13th of July -

Razor - Rockwell - 4 plate - on Executive Shaving ss handle
blade - Lodz Polsilver (7)
brush - Stirling two-band fan badger
soap - LPL - Apricot
post - witch hazel
a/s - LPL - Apricot
balm - Arran Aromatics - Bay Citrus moisturiser
scent - ADP - Mirto de Panarea.

Result - What's not to like?

A beautiful shave on a beautiful day. The LPL is by far the fussiest to lather of all the soaps I own - I put up with it though because of how much my skin likes it and - principally - the scent - strong, bright and 'fresh' - sweet without being cloying. The 'Mirto de Panarea' is ideal for a day such as today - I wasn't sure about it initially - but it is transformed when worn on warm skin - lovely. All good - enjoy the weekend - yours - I.
