I think I damaged the first blade I originally loaded into this razor. The blade was half in and out, but I managed to align it. Each shave felt quite uncomfortable for most of the shaves I’ve had with this. So, a fresh blade was loaded and delivered an exceptionally close, smooth and comfortable finish.

Outstanding, enjoy the rest of the weekend gents.

The lather from this soap is perfect but the scent is too light...
The razor paired with this blade provided an excellent shave. Smooth and crisp in 3 passes for a bbs-dfs finish...

Excellent shave, nice and smooth finish with a brilliant scent. Of the SBS samples and sets I've tried this is still my favourite followed by Valedictorian. I would have bet it would be the other way round but the way they've used the lavender in this is just pleasant. Not overly Floral and a touch dark, very nice.

Hope everyone has a grand day.

Cheers

Marc
