A wonderful razor - Brass General
A wonderful blade - Schick Proline
A wonderful brush - Yaqi Dandelion
A wonderful soap - Signature Soaps Danum
A wonderful scent - Goutal Monseur

For work this week I brought away the General V2 and the Mongoose so I could decide which one could claim to be my Zen of the razor world. Just before leaving the house I decided on a quick shave using the brass General.

Fuck

That was a stupid move as I utterly forgot how damn brilliant the brass is. If you want smooth, close, hassle free then you don't have to look much further.

I don't think there will be a Zen as all these SE's are simply super to live with. I have yet to come across one which doesn't perform. All I manage to conclude is that I am glad to have moved away from DE's and no regrets.

Signature Soaps Danum? So called after the Roman name for Doncaster and probably far better than shaving using the river Don which runs through my childhood town. A river you could never swim in because either you would have more or less floated on the surface or there was a high probability you might have dissolved before getting that far.

Still, a great soap and together with it's Chinese brother a wonderful double act.

So yes, altogether a wonderful shave, wonderful results and a wonderful feeling Satanfriendly and Mrs Satanfriendly agrees.
Indeed, meoooooowwww.

I have used this video quite recently, but it just makes me happy and life wonderful. Just a wonderful tune with great simple chord patterns and a happy bunch of girls who look to be enjoying doing what they do. Wonderful


Appears you are all getting my complete playlist. In this case enjoy several hours of bleeding ears

The Personna BBS-0 head worked better on the LASSC handle, although it still was nowhere near as efficient or as smooth on my skin as the BBS-0. I don't know either of their development histories, but I doubt that the Personna was an inspiration for the LASSC razor. I think it is more likely a case of similar co-evolution. I am glad that I got to try the Personna and am grateful to my fellow shaver for the loan.
