Pre Shave: Hot Shower and Trumpers Coral Skin Food
Razor: El Jefe Head on Windrose Handle
Blade: Kai Captain Titan Mild Protouch (2)
Brush: ToBs Badger
Cream: Trumpers Spanish Leather
Post: Cold water and Thayers cucumber
Balm: Nivea
Second shave with the El Jefe and I am still very happy with it.
First time using the Trumpers products, the Skin Food seemed to make my face tingle but not in the nice way that something like Proraso green does, will need to try that again. Very impressed with the Trumpers cream, used slightly too much and even with the ToBs brush I think I would have had enough for 5 passes or even more! 3 Pass shave and feeling very smooth now.

Wholly Kaw! Fern Concerto (Tallow) really does deliver the goods... I'll be getting more offerings from them in the very near future. ‘The Rock'/Permasharp combo was as reliable as ever. A lovely start to my weekend.

I had a good shave with this razor but nothing to write home about, it did the job but that was it, the blade was sharp and smooth, the semogue 1305 was a joy to use, very ergonomic and the P&B Spitfire was as good as it always is.
I will use this razor some more to see if I'm missing something and report back in due course.
