a very good shave was had, for a razor of this price it was very good indeed . It was very smooth in its action and I found it easy enough to get it's rather bulky head under my nose. I was left as smooth as I like to be after a shave and without irritation of any sort. Thr DR Harris shave soap is fab and the Almond scent was pleasing.

Thank you Pat, appreciate it. Funnily enough I was tempted to ask how you were getting on with 'The Duke'. Good to hear you are still happy with it.

Have a good day.

Greetings All,

Thursday shave.

Two days' growth and warm shave

Preparation – face washed with Clique Liquid facial soap (mild)

Pre: Prorosa white pre-share
Soap: Taylor of Old Bond Street – Sandalwood
Razor: Merkur 34c
Blade: Voskhod (2nd use)
Brush: Molten Brown Shaving Brush

Post Shave: Cold water rinse, Proraso aftershave lotion (green) and Proraso post shave cream (white)

Second use of the Voskhod and I enjoyed using it – three passes and ended up with a very smooth finish - NICE.
 
SOTD 20170608



Brush: J&T® bamboo / Tuxedo synthetic 24 mm
and J&T® black walnut / Maggard synthetic 24 mm.
Shaving soap: Bon Berger Menthe stick (grated).
Razor: Maggard Slant / MR14 handle.
Blade: Lord Super Stainless (5).
After shave: Arko Men Cool after shave cream.

Compared the two knots today.
The differences are very small:
The tips of the Tuxedo are slightly softer, the Maggard has a little bit more backbone.
But as said: VERY small differences ....
 


S.O.T.D Thu 8 June (PM)

Prep: Hot Shower
Brush: RazzoRock 24mm synthetic
Soap: Cella
Bowl: Captains Choice large lather bowl
Razor: Merkur 34HD
Blade: Treet Durasharp #3
Post Shave: Fine American Blend Aftershave

Since 1899? There is a reason why they are still in business making soaps!
A fantastic classic soap, lovely scent. Lots of cushion on the lather, great quality at a good price point.
Both razor, soap and brush came together brilliantly for a great shave.
