Today's shave is dedicated to the generous Chris @Satanfriendly for his wonderful gift of this razor and for being the chap who introduced most of us to Signature Soaps.
Chris warned me of the aggressive nature of this razor and he wasn't kidding! It was going very well until I became overly confident on the chin area and picked up a couple of small nicks (Chris warned me about this and I failed to heed!). Despite those small nicks, I have a superb finish after two passes and I'm looking forward to taming this razor and trying a few different blades in her.
The Hibernia is a lovely smelling soap. The lather exploded in to life (as it always does) and provided good protection from this zealous stainless lady!
Thanks again Chris!

Travel shaves - the La Toja stick - adopting hushed David Attenborough tone - we don't want to startle it - seen here in its natural environment - they roam free on the hill - sustainably and humanely harvested - by soap herders - with generations of experience - a skill passed from father to son - 'los pastores de jabon.' Have good shaves - cheers - I.
