Never seen Pen's Vaara before, Paul - what's it like?
 
Friday...

Soap - P&B Baskerville
Brush - RazoRock Plissoft 24mm
Face lather
Razor - RazoRock Black Hawk V2
Blade - Proline P

Smooth as you like with the Hawk. I especially like the wider head. It makes for longer strokes, thus more coverage.

A great performance from the Baskerville as always.

A run with my DE's starts with the slim adjustable. This also was chance to show how well the Yaqi brush works with another of my favourite soaps. As it whipped an easy slick lather.
