A really superb lather today with the Signatures Soaps Rose soap, but the combination of blade and razor wasn't the best. Even though it was just the 3rd shave with the blade, it should have binned on the 2nd but I couldn't be bothered to change the blade midshave. Managed to complete 2.5 passes without nicking myself so a minor success!
Anyway chaps, have a good day.

@FrankieG what are your thoughts towards the aluminium General? I have the stainless and the brass Generals but the aluminium offerings from the likes of ATT and Mongoose never really set my world on fire. I found they tended to cause more damage than good.
The aluminium General gives, for me at least, an identical result to the brass or stainless one. Obviously it's a much lighter razor and you need to make sure you don't use too much pressure to overcompensate for its lightness. Its weight makes it the perfect travel razor, and that's what I use it for mainly.
I haven't used an aluminium ATT or Mongoose , but I have the RazoRock Hawk and I much prefer the aluminium General to it.
