For you @Satanfriendly - Ms. Perske looking sultry - I don't think she ever looked any other way?
Yesterday:
prep - facial scrub
razor - ATT Calypso - R plate
blade - Med Prep (?)
brush - Simpson Trafalgar T2
soap - Ach Brito Mogno
post - witch hazel
a/s - Epsilon
balm - De Vergulde Hand.
All good - long overdue - an eight day growth coming off. I feel human again. I had noticed a lot of positive comments about the Mogno soap - so was delighted when a fellow member generously offered to send me a bar to try. It is indeed very good - does the job well. It is a wee bit different to other inexpensive hard soaps - La Toja, DVH, Lea, that sort of thing - as it has a distinct scent - other than just soap. A nice light cologne/ozonic thing. Very pleasant. It reminds me of the Valobra shave stick in terms of performance - that's a compliment in my opinion. The only criticism I could make - why on earth did they decide to sell it as a bar? Fair enough - I could grate it into a container - but that falls firmly into the 'life is too short' category of activities for me. I'll need to find something to keep it in - there is a beautiful antique ceramic dish in the window of Oxfam round the corner - a butter dish? Looks the perfect size. Problem - it isn't bastarding open - and probably won't be for quite some time. Such is life - have good shaves one and all - and stay safe. Yours - I.
@Paul L - thank you mate.

Any DE head will do just not the Myatt. My Gillette heads stay in the set.
Sorry it took so long but my image posting is playing up again.

Cheers - can't remember where I've seen those razor stands before......A great shave set up...

Could you just not file down the post on the Myatt top plate enough so that any blade will fit. You don't need to worry too much about plate alignment as the center post will keep it in the middle.
Just a thought.
