Razor : R41 2013 on a Gillette New skinny handle
Blade: English Wilkinson Sword (8)
Soap: Proraso Sandalwood
Brush: Omega 102
Asl: Superdrug Forest Fresh

Why didn't I try the R41 on a wee handle is a mistake, the hype always pointed me to the masculine heavier handles but this combo is a match made in heaven.

It make sense to me that such aggressor should be top heavy.

I tried all Myrsol aftershaves, except Myrsol F./Extra, and my favorite is the Myrsol Antesol.

Antesol is King !!!

SOTD - Sat
Pre: Hot towels & Village Barber oil
Soap: Soap Commander "Commitment"
Brush: Shavemac TSR Xmas-LE "Anchor" 26mm 2-band silvertip fan
Razor 1: Pre-1890 Frederick Reynolds Sheffield wedge razor with dark horn scales
Razor 2: Schick "Paul Revere" (L5)
Blade: (NOS) Gillette Platinum Plus 1973 (1)
Post: Thayer's witch hazel followed by Figaro Monsieur Gold splash & Village Barber balm
First time with either razor, "Big Fred" has a very keen edge and the Schick is very mild (Nice balance too).
The Soap Commander sample is finally gone, but that's OK because Fortitude is on the way.
