vintage rebranded Simpsons best
Parat/Wilkinson Super Sword Edge (NOS)
MdC Fougere (thanks Paul)
Myrsol Emulsion used as aftershave
vintage Hai Karate 'Oriental Spice' AS used as cologne
First time using the Parat, with thanks for Paul's generous gift of one in nice shape. Been wanting to test drive one of these for a while, even though most superspeed like razors don't agree with me.
Man, what a pleasant surprise..........this thing works pretty darn well! Comfortable and very close shave, with no worrying about any weird angles to deal with like with some other superspeeds. Heh, I was all set to not love the Parat, but once again I realized you gotta try each razor yourself. This is going into the arsenal, with plans on it being used a bunch in the future.
BBS results,
Martin

Blade - Gillette Swede
Soap: Mike's eucalyptus and lemon grass\MdC Fougere - suribachi lathered
Last use of the Swede (I think it's done 4 shaves) but I can see why they are so rated.

Glad you like it Mart. It's one of my faves too.
How did the MdC grab you?
