A very nice shave today, the Dart is a very efficient razor, fitted with the Rapira blade it easily deals with my stubble, a single pass with some touch up for an easy comfortable BBS finish. It definitely has more blade feel than the Lupo 72, saying that by sticking with it and getting your technique down it delivers a fine shave, albeit you have to be on your game.
Good luck all who have recently purchased one.
Stay safe and enjoy your day.

B&M's description of their latest offering:

...a smooth, warm blend of wine, orange, grapefruit, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and pipe tobacco that conjures images of sipping a stiff drink near a roaring hearth, the air redolent with the scents and sounds of food and drink and good company. Effortlessly charming and good-natured, Smoking Bishop is one of our best "feel-good" scents ever,..

Rooney 3/2 Ivory Finest (24/58)
Holy Black Coconut Creeper shaving soap
Wolfman WR2-SB/WRH7 Antique Bronze
Personna 74 Tungsten (2)
Holy Black Coconut Creeper aftershave

On first use, the soap easily made excellent lather with a nice toasted coconut scent. I would like it and the aftershave better, I think, if they had a bit less menthol; by the end of the shave, my face felt quite cold.

SOTD: 15/11/2022

Razor: Rockwell 6s
Blade: Voskhod Teflon Coated, 3rd use
Brush: Shedeleven Spalted Scottish Hawthorn AP Shave Co G5C 26mm Fan
Bowl: 3D Printed Bowl
Preshave: PAA Cube Unscented Soap
Soap: Yaqi/MSC Issey Miyaki Puck
Aftershave: Issey Miyake L’Eau d’Issey EDT
Balm: L’Oreal Men Expert Reinforcing Aftershave Balm
Additional Care: Osma Laboratoires Alum Block

As always the Yaqi/MSC base is extremely easy to lather and the soap scent didn’t disappoint at all. Medium but long lasting, with an ever so slightly lighter and zester scent, this is the closest a dupe as I’ve tried gets to the original! I loved it and the shave was spot on excellent from start to finish!
Enjoy your shave guys.
