Axe Denim shaving cream
Henk walnut silvertip
Open comb New head on Global Needz handle
Vintage Scottish Permasharp (fifth shave)
Vintage Denim aftershave
Really good. That's the end for this blade. I somehow dropped the razor and instinctively tried to catch it. I tried to stop myself catching it but the damage was already done. Not sliced a finger for a while

Razor: English NEW LC with Weber Bulldog Handle
Blade: Personna Double Edge #1
Brush: Simpson Duke 2 Best
Soap: Proraso Menthol
Post: Proraso Menthol Post Cream
Aftershave: Speick Splash
A nice 2 pass cold water face lather shave
Still going through my untested blades, these were ok, but nothing jumping out to make me buy more of them, unless of course I run out of blades and need some urgently from the supermarket.

Well today was the first time using the injector, and my first attempt at a SOTD picture:
The injector gave me a very nice shave. Not bad since I wasnt too sure on the angle to use this at!
The Boots bottle is some homemade balm which also got its first try today. Seems to have worked well nice and smooth.
