And on this father's day I give you my shave with the theme of 'A snarling dog'
Ikon SB the snarling shaver
Polsilver Lodz the barking blade
Razorock 400 the brush with bite
Penhaligons Blenheim Bouquet the something I can't think of
ADP Absolut the how do you make something sweet and gorgeous sound vicious and nasty? You don't
I covered most of this shave in my thread 'Ikon SB vs Ikon SB vs Ikon SB' over on the DE section so I will save you the pain of having to endure the usual piffle.
A tale of three identical razors (well nearly) which all seem to shave differently. Or at least that is what I am telling myself. In this case I am talking about the Ikon SB. A well known aggressive razor but just h

This Penhaligon's is a real gen. Out of the tube it makes one wonder what can be made of it? but it does a minor miracle in creating one excellent lather.

Despite shaving using three different heads to draw comparisons the shave was in the main made using the polished cap. Exactly as I wrote this is the bad tempered pooch of the bunch. One incredibly close shave which left my skin tingling and where even a splash of witch Hazel had me quietly wincing. A few stealth nicks which had me pondering 'where the hell did they from?' but nothing the styptic pencil couldn't resolve. A razor which causes havoc when peace and harmony appears to be the way of the shave.
Altogether one ultra close shave and smoother than a dolphin covered in Vaseline.
Indeed one snarling dog of a razor but I wouldn't have it any other way.
And more snarling dogs to round things off
