A shave too far for the personna I think but perfectly acceptable results for pottering round the house and garden!

Brush: SOC
Razors: Red Imp + british Aristocrat
Soap: MdC
AS: Mennen SB

Nice blade, the Imp, but it felt a little wrong to use an Aristocrat for a head shave, but it sure was sweet :D

Feather AS-D1 Razor
Feather blade
New Forest Tubby 1
Vulfix Persian Musk
Alum
St James Founders reserve,
Manderin & Patchouli gel Balm
St James Cedarwood & Clarysage,
Eau de cologne.

Such a good shave first time with some of these products, love the Eau de cologne and the balm, I also have the shaving cream in the Cedarwood and clarysage, two pass shave, very close, but it's always a great shave when you have about three days growth, very impressed with the St James Founders reserve, gave the New Forest Tubby 1 it's first run out super little brush.

I picked the razors up for a song a while back, and sent them to Neil for the extensive restoration work. They're quite exquisite, and very fine shavers indeed, so once again Neil gets a round of applause from me.
