SOTD Thursday 17th November 2016

My first DE shave for a while, had to test these blades out!

Razor...Hone Type 15
Blade..Lodz Polsilver #1
Soap..P&B Baskerville
Brush..Kent BK 12
Post...Thayers Lavender AF WH

Well I needed to test these blades out having never used them before, so paired with my Hone I set to work and I've got to say that I'm very impressed with the sharp/smooth ratio, ordinarily these cost 50£+ for 200 blades, quite expensive, fortunately I didn't pay that much but have to say I think they are worth it. They are in short supply which is another reason for the high cost.
So, a very good shave indeed, BBS and irritation free, just how I like it!
The BK12 whipped up a beautiful lather from the P&B Baskerville soap and the scent filled my nostrils, I could hear the wind and rain raging outside and for a moment I could have been on Dartmoor stalking the hound with Dr Watson.

Wishing you well, over and out.
