De Vergulde Hand Shaving Soap
Omega 10065 Boar Brush
RazoRock Black Hawk V2 with a generic AC Type generic Blade

These Chinese Blades have me confused. No way do they come close to the sharpness of a Feather. They have to work hard.......but the end result is perfect with no sting at all from the Alum Test.. If it was a Feather I would bin it....but the results tell a different story.
3 passes for a face feeling finish and still very good 12 hrs on.

A nice shave this evening using a few of my new acquisitions. The Gentleman's Groom Room Scottish Heather soap is another good performer. The scent is another good one but not as good as Highland Bothy.

The Claymore gave a DFS after 3 passes and some pickups. The Dear Barber aftershave gave quite a burn but it was worth it. The scent is tremendous. I needed to add a little bit of balm just for a bit of moisturiser so the Nivea was called into action. It has absorbed well with the aftershave scent really noticeable again.

Have a great night folks! [emoji1303]
