Good Evening Gents,
Prep:Hot shower and L'OREAL Charcoal face wash
Razor: ATT R1
Razor blade: Rapira Platinum Lux*
Brush: Simpsons Captain 2 Manchurian
Cream: Fitjar Havn
Post: Thayers witch hazel and Dove sensitive aftershave balm.
Very good shave today. I'd read a few days ago of a member (you know who you are) having good results with the Rapira blades and the R1.
I have to concur. I found the combination to be very smooth and effective.
A shout out and thank you to @Jel999 who gifted me the Rapria blades when I first joined this forum.
He also recommended the Romera brushes, which I also ordered one today. So thanks for the heads up and I didn't forget.
Hope you all have a great evening.
Cheers
Rob
Pleased you like the blades & when the Romera arrives, i'm sure you'll agree that it's ridiculously cheap for a manchurian knot. ( I assume you have ordered a manchurian knot. ) Not wishing to knock Simpsons but Romera are about a third of the price.
A loooooooooong wait, and pray there are no problems with it. I ordered in March , got it in May sent back in May got back in June then the same problem was still a problem and I've not seen my replacement and barely an email answered in 5 months[emoji35]

I can't argue with the quality of the manchurian knot and the price but I won't be buying again I'm afraid , particularly since he takes full payment up front unlike anybody else I've dealt with. I hope everything goes well with your order and you enjoy the brush.Sorry to hear of your issues.
I was told (before I ordered it) about the issues with lead times and his poor communication skills.
Fingers crossed it all works out (for both of us).
Great looking blade and happy birthday to you.
