The weekend shave, and a real corker of a blade to skin encounter it was too. after a warm shower.

Pre ........... Proraso white
Bowl..........3d printed
Soap..........Palmolive stick
Brush.........Simpson Berkley, best
Razor.........Ikon b1 oss,/ windrose K2 handle
Blade .......Perma Sharp (3)
Post........., Hot and cold face wash, Alum block
Asb.............Nivea sensitive
Asl............. M&S Woodspice

If I was to pick a No1 set-up, this would surely be in the running. the palmolive stick which has been grated down into a porcelain pot created a superb, super slick lather, as good as any, if not better than more expensive soaps. Perma Sharp, a really good blade , worked superbly with the Ikon bI oss. and the windrose handle is so ergonomic and maneuverable. A three pass shave, to a BBS finish..... Feeling good

Enjoy your weekend, stay safe and keep smiling

Today I got the Shave I wanted last time out, but as my face was dry and sore I could not really push it so the Shave was a half hearted affair.

A very pleasant shave today. The Progress set on 2.5 for both passes is about optimum with a Feather blade (for me).

8th straight shave and 3rd full face shave with across against and touch ups great shave little irritation on the chin but nothing the Post shave products couldn’t take care of, loving this razor can’t wait to get some money in to add a second to try
