A most bodacious of days to you brethren of the Shaving fraternity and I bid you welcome to my shave with the theme, '23'

20230809_200649.jpg

23 razors (a blatant lie there is only one) - Ikon B1
23 Edged blade - Polsilver Lodz
23 bristles - Captain Fawcett's
23 swirls of soap - Signature Soaps Danum
23 something or other - L'Occitane Cade balm

A 23rd wedded bliss anniversary shave starring a host of nice shaving bits. 23 years our second time around that is. This is our second time married to each other and the longest I know of in our bizarre (and probably illegal) status. My wedding song played at the wedding.......





And Mrs Satanfriendly's for today.....





'And I cast you to the depths of hell and the eternal pits of fire'

'Oh, you mean home then?'

A new blade and a very polished performance from a very polished act in the Ikon B1. So impressed by the Danum the other day I thought I'd better give it another day out. It also happened to be sat at the top of the pile and an easy reach for.

Throw it altogether in wedded harmony and voila ici, a most smooth and polished finish. Just the tonic to go with the 8 O'clock gin. A happy day and a happy shave to start it all off.

In all honesty I think 23 years a second time around says it is not all fire and brimstone and Mrs Satanfriendly is really a superb partner at heart. Just I'm rubbish.

Over to those darling Beaver girls to end this SOTD on. Have a lovely day people...

Brush Yaqi 22mm Joy Butterscotch Boar
Razor Henkels & Friodur 472
A very nicely scented soap & matching balm. The lather is just impeccably creamy and slick.
I enjoyed a superb shave with this razor. The edge was exquisitely soft and smooth after stroping on the roo leather. 3passes for a bbs-dfs finish...

Congratulations to you Chris and of course your better half. 23 years second time around must say something about you both clearly being excellent soul mates. I look forward to at least another 23 years reading your posts :eek:
 
Thursday 10 August
Today razor and brush Italian, blade and soap from Turkey. Excellent combo as it turned out.
Focus is a very slender light weight razor, this gives it nimble handling, like Italian cars, but it’s also gives the impression of fragility, a bit like Italian cars. Nevertheless, the Omega 48 quickly produced a good lather and the Derby cleared it and my stubble with ease although I did have to work harder on my neck and chin area to get a good finish. If the handle was a tad shorter it would help in this respect.
This is an excellent every day razor but whether it would work as effectively on more days of growth I’m not sure.
Enjoy your day fellas!
