Even though the Ball End Tech might not be the most exciting razor I find it to be a really solid performer. Good to see you getting on with the Lord Platinum, with the Lord Classic Super Stainless they are my two favourite Lord blades.Monday 23rd November
Wash with Ach Brito Glyce
Lather up with Hampshire Woolfat Shaving Soap & RazoRock 400 Butterscotch w/Black Fibre Synthetic 24mm
Single pass shave (2 days) with 1960s Gillette Tech & Lord Platinum Class (2)
Hot rinse, cold rinse & alum wash
Pashana Original aftershave splash and hair tonic
Ahhhh! Another shave with the lovely Hampshire Wool Fat ...
What a lovely blade this Lord Platinum Class is in the right razor! Mind you, when is the Gillette Tech ever the wrong razor? Nah! My last shave was in the Merkur 37C and to be frank, I was a little irritated immediately afterwards, but a good splash of VIBR and let the lovely lanolin do its thing and I was fine. Tonight, the shave was slick and smooth, perfect in the Tech. Damn good splash of Pash and a healthy dose on the scalp, too.
Champion!

With a few uses of the Hants Wool Fat are you more or less enthusiastic about it from your first use? I find it takes me quite a few shaves to get the right water to soap ratio dialled in to get the best results.
Chrome next, the Super Stainless ... then the Big Ben. Yeah, the Tech is my baseline razor and it never disappoints. As for the Hampshire soap, yes, it continues to meet my initial enthusiasm. Tonight, especially, as the Pashana is a perfect partner post-shave - woody patchouli, perfectly drying which lets the lanolin keep everything comfortable without any mushiness.
