Prep ~ D R Harris Almond soap, Shower
Razor ~ Cobra Classic
Blade ~ Proline P~30
Soap ~ Noble Otter Flying Hide
Brush ~ Zenith Manchurian Badger
Post ~ Floid Black Aftershave
Scent - Christian Dior - Leather Oud

A great shave, the soap is fabulous, like sitting in an old leather arm chair smoking a fat cigar sitting in front of a wood fire, fantastic! Loving my new brush, lots of backbone and slightly scratchy tips which should get soft over time but still retain the backbone because of those thick Manchurian hairs.
A fresh blade in my cobra, always the best shave is the one with a fresh blade.
The lather was perfect along with its scent which was removed cleanly with every pass leaving me with a BBS Finnish , perfect.:)
To complement the wonderful Flying Hide Shave Soap I pulled out the big guns my Dior Leather Oud Edp ,just perfect, a top shave to start the day.

Wishing you all a fab Friday......P.

I concur with your view of the Qshave
I bought two and both were plagued with alignment issues.

I detected in a Ming this difference in the "rails".

If the performance of this soap matched the scent it would have no competitors for the No.1 spot in my soaps, as it is, it's not in my top five.
Happy Shaving one and all.
