Different strategy tonight, once with the grain and once against gave me a good shave. I'd like to get this to the same one pass that I usually do but after just two shaves I think progress is very good ...
Don't usually shave on a Friday evening but one last have with the pass around 1912

Nice little shave with the 1912, after ditching the PAL blade, I think it actually pulled a few hairs out!
The GEM is starting too loose its edge, but it probably has another couple of shaves left in - shame I've nothing to use it in as the the 1912 is now packed and ready for its next victim!

Nope I'm taking vintage away on camp, it's a nice razor the R89 Twist, but it's like most modern razors for me, tugging away on my beard. can't beat vintage.

Had a most impressive shave using a razor by Evahs.
Already from the first WTG stroke it had nice audible feedback and shaved extremely efficient without every feeling aggressive.
One pass and I had a very socially acceptable shave. I liked it a lot.
Full disclosure: I got this razor for $2 after they reached out to me on Instagram but never asked for a "public review" - just for me to tell THEM what I thought.
They just started selling it on Amazon and if there is any interest I can see if I can get some discount codes for people - but this may be less interesting for people outside of the UK due to shipping costs.

I am still traveling and yesterday morning I found in a mall this Wilkinson Sword Shaving Soap and, you know it, I bought it. I am very curious about trying every soap or aftershave I happen to see in shops and, although this one is considered a sort of classic shaving soap, I admit I never had the chance to personally try it also because it is not so easy to find it in Italy. This soap is not so bad, however I would not consider it a top notch soap, however it is a good basic soap providing enough cushion and slicking effect, but I find it to lack in the moisturizing effect. As for fragrance, it is what you would get from an "old fashioned" shaving soap, however I like it.
