A Straight 10/10 for this shave tonight,
Absolutely Class.
I just can’t do any wrong with the 6s.
The blade was a first for me and like the other Treets iv tried it was decent, not the best iv used by any means but decent nonetheless.
The Soap for me is class and i genuinely rate it higher than soaps i have that are double possibly triple the price.
i reckon it’s one of the desert island soaps i wouldn’t want to be without.
It’s the only Razorock iv tried but i really need to get more.
Onwards & Upwards
Stay Safe Lads
 
Friday's shave was left late because I was out for a curry.
As I was a bit disappointed with the results using the Elios blade, I thought I'd try a Nacet in the GC.68 using the exact same soap, etc.
Result, superb, far better than the Elios with the .68 plate.
Next is to try both with the.84 plate. I expect the Elios blade will perform better as it does seem smooth.
Have a good weekend

Wednesday Shave

Preshave: Henro Previa
Brush: 30mm Hulk Synbad
Soap: Saponificio Varesino Cubebe
Razor: Matador ( Tech Clone and a very fine one at that !)
Blade: Gillette Goal
Aftershave: Floids "The Original"
Balm: L'occitane Original
EDT: Encre Noire

The Goal Blades where a very kind gift from another member , in my opinion they are excellent.

There seems to be an infinite variety of "Matador" razors out there, was that a generic name used by different companies? There are modern ones with Chinese heads that I'm sure are unrelated crap.

I not sure Toby this one was made in Sweden , I really like the weight of it. Not sure if the box belongs to the razor as the picture on the box is an open comb and the razor closed.

I've never looked into it, but every time I see a Matador razor it's different. The word means the ultimate trump, defeat, overcome, triumph, etc, so it could easily be just a cool name used by many.
