Silky smooth 3-pass BBS...again. This blade is very smooth and well matched to this razor. I wonder how long it'll last?

Back to the Jagger after sending the 37c on to the next in the passaround :(. But, I must be getting good at this :icon_razz: , 2days growth mowed down with ease, no nicks, irritations, just a great smooth shave.

I don't actually know how many shaves are on this blade. It's way into double figures though!

Pre: homemade shaving oil (with eucalyptus, frankincense and tea tree EOs)
Razor: Merkur Futur
Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium
Soap: Wickham's Lavender
AS: TOBS St. James
AB: DR Harris Arlington

A great smooth shave today. The first time I've used Wickham's lavender - it provided a great foamy lather with a little bit of extra cushion. Personally I prefer the Southsea Spray scent as it's top notch.

Cheers
