Remarkable!Head shave no 2 with the Supply Provision razor.
Same prep as yesterday, shaving soap for today is my beloved Wickham's Magnum. Head lather with Razorock Plissoft 24mm.
I started with Personna blade from yesterday, dull and not shaving, very audible but not working at all.
I replaced the blade from Personna to Schick. Schick's cartridge is rubbish, blade stuck on top of Personna's but thankfully there is a screw! Very nice and useful feature.
Blade replaced, first stroke, then another. WOW. Smooth, quiet as a mouse but this blade is taking no hair as a hostage. I stopped there for a second intrigued how this dramatic difference is even possible.
After my first pass AGT there was nothing left to be shaved but there was still plenty of lather left so I did another pass than washed my beard with the leftovers.
One of the closest and smoothest shaves I have ever had I must say. I think I could use this razor (with Schick blades) every day. The weight is the only thing that get me thinking…I would love to try alu version with Ever-Ready G-Bar style handle.
Aftershave for tonight is DIY mentholated Tom Ford Tuscan Leather lotion, I smell like 5000 quid leather sofa and love it!
I must say I am impressed.
There have been one or two knocking around on the For Sale thread recently. You might get a bargain!Remarkable it is! In case I did something wrong before, I gave the Personna blade another chance. It failed again.
Inserted Schick (3rd shave), lathered some OSP Neroli and I must say I had one of the best head shaves ever!
This was my first use of OSP soap but I am very impressed with both the scent and properties, very creamy protective and slick lather and The Supply pairs extremely well with it. The weight of the razor is not a problem anymore. It is heavy but there's method in this madness. I limited myself on how much I spend on shaving gear and this razor is above my budget but who knows, there are people who like me I hope and they know when my birthday is
Thanks so much for making it available for the pass around Paul.Thank you to everyone who took part and for leaving your thoughts about your time with it, good or bad....we can't all like the same things and it would be strange if we did. It had a six month holiday and a lot of razors can't say that!
It was my pleasure, I have put my name down for a few pass-Arounds so only thought it fair that I gave a little back and I hope that everyone who used it got something out of it even if it was just the oppertunity to try something different to their normal razors.Thanks so much for making it available for the pass around Paul.
