Soap: HoM Shire 2
Razor: Merkur 39C
Blade: Wizamet
Ppst: HoM Shire 2

Nice one this morning, lovely, smooth and smelling good. This boar goes strength to strength, nice soft tips and maintains it's backbone. Still can't soak without having to load half the tub, but a bit of a run under the tap before loading is more than enough (and no broken hairs).

Hope everyone has a good one.

Cheers

A lovely shave today with the Tatara/Rapira combo, the uber-comfortable Masamune fitted with the Smooth as silk Plat Lux gave a wonderful 3 pass shave. I had plenty of creamy, slick, lather, easily enough the shave.
Enjoy your day all.

I like to do "Straights and Sillies" on Sundays, but was out for a walk yesterday, so the Silly is today.
A Rolls Razor on a Tatara Nodachi handle. (I goofed trying to unscrew a Rolls handle that didn't unscrew, so it got converted to an adapter to M5.)
Prep: hot flannel. 3 pass. Result, OK, I suppose. I've had some lovely shaves from this Rolls setup, but this particular blade is a bit dull. I'll hone some more and try again.

A superb two pass shave with the Henson. The Plisson created an excellent, voluminous lather with the Taylor’s cream. The Henson was so smooth and comfortable compared to yesterday’s R41 shave. Very pleasant.

I know i keep saying it but another brilliant shave.
I love this soap and i have another two my wife just bought waiting for me on my return.
RazorRock soaps for me are real value with
Agent Shave selling them from ten to twelve quid not a bad deal at all.
The Nrush iv had for over a year possibly 2 years i can’t quite remember.
This brush was made for the Pastures Pharmacy meet in New York by Robb Moffat,
Because it’s a Darn Robb i think it was one of his earlier brushes.
This one was part of his own collaboration but he decided to get rid of some personal stuff a while back.
I can’t remember the year but something is telling me 2016.
i really should find out & i really should write information down when i get it lolIMG_2965.jpeg

How can you bring yourself to buy a soap with a name like that? If I brought out an aftershave called Pure Shite, would I sell any?
