Blade: Gillette 7 O'Clock SP (3)

Late shave today and after running around with the little one in the woods and on the beach then mowing the lawn, so after having a shower I thought why not try a cold water shave. Remarkably refreshing, might have to do that now often.

Cracking finish and ready for some drinks in the garden whilst cooking a roast for the Mrs. How everyone is having a grand Sunday!

Cheers

Brilliant Relaxing Sunday Shave
Everything about it was class.
1 year ago this razor was to aggressive for me & the last few shaves have been too drawer to an extent where i don’t find it aggressive at all.
The Blade paired very well & im surprised how good these blades are.
I didn’t hold out much hope when they first arrived but i’m now glad i bought the full card.

Fitjar Island Pre shave soap bar & today this is what’s left :ROFLMAO:
You would think i would throw it away but i’m a tight scotsman
I reckon there’s a good half dozen shaves left with it yet.
i haven’t used it in a number of weeks but £30 well spent.
Although i loved it i doubt i would get another but you never know.

SOTD: 27/03/2022

Razor: Alpha Shaving Works The Bandit
Blade: Gillette Nacet, 1st use
Brush: Yaqi Sagrada Familia
Bowl: Captains Choice Copper Lather Bowl Standard Bowl
Preshave: PAA Cube Unscented Soap
Soap: Master Soap Creations Night On The Town Puck
Aftershave: Jean Paul Gautier Le Male EDT
Balm: L’Oréal All In 1 Moisturising Cream Balm
Additional Care: Osma Laboratoires Alum Block

I decided this would be my last shave with the Bandit and it’s fair to say I’m in love with it to a point where I think I’d even sell my Blackbird to get one. It’s not nearly as blade feely but just as close, efficient and gentler on my skin. It’s just a great razor, I’m not sure what improvements could be made if I’m honest.
I’m definitely going to miss it! Get me on the preorder list please! Or I’ll take this it as is after the passaround I really like it in brass!
