SOTD : Saturday 12th June to Friday 18th June 2021.

Chris, I'm almost 99% sure they are not Crystals. From what I remember they are sharpest Israeli blade from that factory, the Bluebeard's Revenge was the unbranded one like the Tomy, which is the smoothest of the 3.
I trust your knowledge of blades Shubs so you're probably right. I had always assumed those crystals were the same as the supermarket branded blades.

Post: cold splash, mentholated witch hazel and Benjamin's mentholated bay rum

Had a cold water shave today. First time using a GSB and although there was 4 day thick stubble it dealt with it all in 2 passes plus pick ups.

The leaf has been a revelation in terms of head shaving. I was very cackhanded using a de and this is so much quicker, easier and most importantly efficient.

All that menthol combined with the bay rum have me smelling like a polo in a rum cocktail. Lovely stuff.
