A perfect line up for a wonderful shave, it can't get much better!


Paul.
 
I have never tried to bowl lather a stick. As far as I am aware....sticks are designed to be used like a crayon on the face and face lathered.

A quick dash round with the Arko this morning. While I do enjoy a shave stick it's not my favourite but nor do I hate it, it's been open for about 3 years airing and still smells the same. I won't replace it when it's gone as I have two sticks of derby un-opened to go at as well.

Brush: vintage Evans, London Made no. 4 reknot synthetic
Razor: WR1
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue

Wolfman could become an every day razor for me. Whilst it doesn’t feel aggressive ii delivers a really close shave with the lightest of contact. I started with a Lord blade but quickly switched to a new Gillette and immediately felt the difference. No pick ups required but ran the alum block for good measure followed by a dab of Gillette moisturiser gel.
Have a great day fellas, Noah’s arc was seen around here this morning looking for somewhere to moor up.
