and they're cheap

That's a added bonus, if they doubled in cost, i would still buy them because of the quality of them.

​

Pre Shave: Hot Shower + L'Oreal Pure Power Charcoal Face Wash and Proraso white
Razor: Ever Ready Natural Angle
Blade: GEM SS PTFE (#1)
Brush: Kent BLK4
Cream: Proraso Blue
Post: Alum Block, Cold water and Humphreys Witch Hazel
AS: Proraso Blue Balm

A decent shave but I much prefer these blades in a 1912 or 1924 and especially with a shim added in the earlier razor.

Gentleman's Face Care Club cream
Razorock 400
Rockwell 6C plate 3
Astra SP (1)
Lavender witch hazel mixture
Proraso Green ASL
Oud 24

Normal service resumed with my favourite razor / blade combo
This pairing for me guarantees a smooth trouble free shave.
Only my second use of this cream, and the performance was quite good. Not a lot of product needed to produce more than enough lather for more than three passes.
No sting at all from the aftershave.
BBS shave tonight, and I didn't take any extra time or care.
Oud 24 sprayed on my chest has left me smelling as smooth as I feel.

Good weekend to you all (and your fury and feathered friends) @Mike56

Might be my slim but the blade seems to have a bit of flex on 9.

Don't forget to type G&C in the voucher box for a discount.
Edit: when things return to normal mate, atb

Yeah I thought i might have noticed that a little at the time.

I've only done it once with 9. May have berm premature on choosing my favourite setting

Razor: Mongoose B2 w/ Hempel Handle
Blade: Feather Professional (8)
Brush: El Druida Red Heart Chakte Kok/African Blackwood 2 Band Badger
Soap: Oleo Montrose Beach
A/S: Old Spice Fresh Lime
Decanter: Scrimshaw Whale Tooth (Full & Bye) Cologne 1974-1976 & Body Talcum 1979-1980

The last 2 days of this month are devoted to my 2 favorite Decanters. I am big fan of Moby Dick the book and movie.
There were six styles of Scrimshaw Decanters sold from 1974 to 1976 (Product ID 3835 or 3838). The bottles sported simulated scrimshaw depicting whaling or sailing imagery. Packaging was clear plastic with the decanter on a silver plastic base. Each decanter held 6 ounces of cologne. Some were sold in gift sets with a scrimshaw soap on a rope.
