Greetings,
Another wonderfully relaxing Williams Superlather sunday shave.
Last weekend i gave my humble razor collection a sprucing up with hot water, dettol anti-baterial soap & a tooth brush.
After putting them back in my shaving arsenal it accured to me i hadn't added some of them to my razor rotation for a long time...So the next few weeks i'm going to start adding hardware & software to my SOTD set ups that hardly gave any attention to.Starting with the weishi adj ,and the treet 7 day platinum blades, both items i've only used on a few occasions. I forgot how smooth and sharp the treet 7 days blades are,They matched up with the weishi adj wonderfully making a efficient smooth duo..The characteristics of them are very similar the Astra SP blade in sharpness, with a slightly sharper edge ,which can be a little rough on the first pass, but after that they mellow out...As always DE blade opinions are very subjective....I also have some Trig blades another blade i haven't used for sometime both the 7 days platinum & Trig blades are from the Treet factory manufactured in Pakistan.
My skin type seems to like indian & pakistan made blades, and haven't yet had problems with intermittent quality problems with both,as always ymmv.
A comfortable 3 pass + pick ups silky smooth shave with no errors to report.
Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of Arko ~ Comfort A/S Balm.
My face is feeling invigoratingly cool, smooth & smelling devine.
Enjoy your Sunday Ladies & Gentlemen.
