Thanks for the tag I,

Shave sticks seem to go under the radar a little, but I'm a fan.

Razor - Yaqi DOC
Blade - Shark Super Stainless (6)
Soap - Arko
Brush - Omega Wild Hog
Post - Witch Hazel/Barts Balm Sample H
AS - Benjamins Bay Rum

Today's shave was the best one with the Shark SS blade, odd considering it was the 6th shave on the blade.

Have a good Friday gents.
 
Pre = Fitjar islands charcoal bar
Razor = Timeless Bronze
Blade = Derby Usta ( 1 )
Brush = Simpson’s Duke 2
Soap = Lea Original Shave Stick
Splash = Myrsol Metisol Astringent
Balm = Baxter’s Of California

Decent enough shave today.
The Lea was a first for me and worked very well.
pretty much zero scent but the soap itself done everything you want in a soap and a £2.50 it would last months on a daily basis.
The Brush was also a first for me & a purchase from the BST here from Arthur Daley sorry i mean Boycie
and the balm was also a generous gift from Chris.

A Bit controversial but i have to say the jury is still out on the Timeless
Beautifully made but is it better than anything else i have
probably not,
Perhaps i haven’t found the right blade yet but i’m trying not to use my favourites at the moment and trying to get through the blades i haven’t tried or certainty not tried in a long time.
Onwards & Upwards
