Greetings,
I continued using another shave stick for today's shave..If i where to choose which is my favourite out of the Arko & Derby
Stick, The Derby stick is the winner IMHO, the lather it creates is slightly more slicker, this is probably due to it been softer
than the Arko Stick..adding to that it's got a nicer fragrance, not that is vitally important to me, both sticks are equal in shaving performance though.
The Merkur 39C/Voskhod duo was a superb match,I'll confess i totally love my merkur slant razors,they always give me superb shaves...
However,The newly gifted Ming shi 2000S amazed me at the weekend with it's efficency and smoothness..A instant favourite & keeper. superb.
A wonderful 3 pass + pick ups non silky smooth shave with no erors to report...
Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of Boots Freshwood Aftershave.
