Good call, if you want a better description I have no doubt someone else with a better nose than myself will pick it up in short order. I'll give it a run out in the morning and see how it holds up and I may be able to give a better description once actually used, better yet I'll just ask the Mrs, she's better at picking up subtleties that I just don't get.Thank you I know barbershop is a strange one to ask about but some barbershop scents I like others I can take it or leave it..sounds quite nice don’t think I will rush to grab it have some other bits I want to pick up first but may well give it a go in the future
Yes sometimes a scent can smell very different from the tub or bottle than it does in use..can smell different on different skin too, does sound nice though !Good call, if you want a better description I have no doubt someone else with a better nose than myself will pick it up in short order.

shh don’t tell my girlfriend
Unfortunately set of yuzu/rose/patchouli was sold out , same with opulence, by the time I managed to check out slickboys .
plus 100 voskhod blades - I enjoy them in both Rockwell 6s and blackbird .
No me neither !I won't tell her!

There was a comment from @mpf9ret in the SOTD posts that his also arrived today and that he believes this is a V1.My Excalibur (AKA Yaqi AC AKA Yaqi Raster V2) arrived ...
So, I have the polished head and this matte full razor.
I find that I use the flutes when going AGT and also around the neck.There was a comment from @mpf9ret in the SOTD posts that his also arrived today and that he believes this is a V1.
Looking again at mine, I can see the tab is a little skewed. It doesn't actually affect the orientation of the blade which sits on the baseplate squarely and when the top cap is dropped through remains lined up with the front comb. I hope the other folks who also bought the last few from this seller are also happy with theirs. @PaulL @mpf9ret ... anyone else?
Either way, nice to have the other one (matte chrome) ... and I suppose nice to have a usable V1 as well.
Do we think it's possible that this razor was designed as a leg shaver? Those indents in the handle are kinda perfect for gripping and dragging the razor with the head trailing rather than with the razor held with the head upright as we do when face shaving.

Should have said man, could've had a rummage around the lab at work for one of those things, to be fair the stuff we order in is probably from China anyway, handy things to have.Hardly worth posting but thought this was ideal for honing...eBay special from China !

Was only a few quid delivered don’t know how they do it in China it would cost us more for delivery ! My Tattoo artist uses one for his green soap liquid so got the idea from him really thought it would make it easier to control than pouring it out of a bottle which is what I have been doing. Thanks mateShould have said man, could've had a rummage around the lab at work for one of those things, to be fair the stuff we order in is probably from China anyway, handy things to have.
