My final shave with this lovely razor so kindly loaned to me by @Tony'schin .
I have enjoyed using this razor very much indeed and today's shave was no exception.
A wonderful creamy lather was produced from the Czech & Speake Oxford & Cambridge soap and another use of the fantastic Gillette Bleue NOS blade.
A perfect shave was had leaving me with a super smooth finish.
Thank you Tony.
Let's be careful out there!

It’s only a matter of time until I order a bucketload of those soaps from HLS from Belarus. I just can’t resist!View attachment 67942
Prep: Shower, Palmolive Olive Oil Soap
Pre: Proraso Green
Soap: TDS Evergreen Juniper
Brush: Yaqi 24mm Sagrada Familia Tuxedo
Razor: Parker 22R Interceptor
Blade: Voskhod (1)
Post: Kayaput ASL, Bulldog Moisturiser
Today's shave is dedicated to @Rubbish Triathlete who spurred me on to actually use my recent soap acquisitionsI reverted to the Voskhod blade to give the soap a fair run, as I know the Parker/Voskhod combo works perfectly for me.
The soap's performance was superb. It can take a lot of water, and one loading of the brush gave ample lather for two passes plus tidy up. Smell? Well I love the pine/juniper scent, and I can live with the lanolin - just. The barnyard is definitely there, and in a lighter scented soap might protrude more. The Kayaput's a nice bracer, but won't win prizes for complexity or subtlety. I am, however, feeling raring to go and refreshed rather than pampered. Right off to spend Saturday pulling down fences and trimming conifers, which seems entirely appropriateHave a great weekend, gents.
Perfectly understandable. And justifiable on a "more items bought means cheaper postage cost per item" rationaleIt’s only a matter of time until I order a bucketload of those soaps from HLS from Belarus. I just can’t resist!
