Last day at the school tomorrow, and the kids are off which means it's a mufti day. That means some scrotes don't shave, but they are the ones who don't do it as a hobby!
Another great shave from the Polsilver. I'm thinking about trying the Feather again as of Saturday and might need something newer (and sharper) in it. I reckon if I was keeping with this combo I could get another 2 shaves from it.
God help me for asking about anything straight related...I would bet on having permanent blabber's remorse over this.
So that's a top performing razor of yours eh? It's one made in the UK, of which I know there were lots of good makers using Sheffield steel or working in that town back then.
You have other razors made elsewhere that you also like a lot.
Prep - hot shower then Real Shaving Company face scrub
Brush - Vulfix Guvnor
Cream - T&H west indian limes
Muhle R89
Supermax stainless blade (new)
Alum block
Proraso green "dopobarba" lotion
Result : an excellent clean shave with only two very small nicks, very pleased.

EJ Badger
St James Cedarwood and Clarysage Cream
Ogallala Bay Rum Lime and Peppercorns
Ogallala Bay Rum Cologne
Last of my bonanza pack of Ogallala Bay Rum stuff (apart from the cologne) hopefully sonmeone can pick up distributing this. Its great stuff particularly liked the lime one and sandalwood one.
Still plodding on, the WARS cream and the Harvard ASB have both now gone.
I read somewhere here recently that the little Scottie was good with hard soaps. Believe me it is better than good, it is excellent with the always wonderful C&E Sandalwood.
Been using this set-up for about a week now and my face feels uber smooth and toned. C&E are very underrated soaps in my opinion.
Enjoy the rain everyone; hopefully it will keep down any dust and debris at 1111hrs today.
