Come on Barry,
Lets see a Photo of SOTD, at least over the Weekend. I know that unlike Retirees you do not have time in the week as you have to dash off to work.

You're right Mike. I have absolutely no excuse at the weekend. Consider me suitably shamefaced. I promise to pull my socks up.

Posted a bit late, but, super Sunday morning shave. Everything was just right, lather, razor, aftershave lotion and time.

The First outing with the Windrose Slant , The Handle is heavy but it seems to just sit nicely at the correct angle in the hand, nice efficient shave. I will write more once I have had a chance to try it some more.

Preshave - Vitos Menthol
Brush - Maggards Tuxedo
Soap - OSP Grapefruit and Menthol Cream (My Favourite)
Razor - Windrose Open Comb Slant
Blade - Gillette Sharp Edge Yellow
Balm - Brimble and Hawkins

Hi Paul

It is heavy but It feels very nice in the hand and seems to just want to sit at the correct angle, was efficient I would say slightly more aggressive than the Ikon it shows a lot of blade, but less aggressive than the R41, one very nice feature is the comb ends are very rounded so they felt very smooth on the face. Of course that's only one shave and bear in mind I am still a beginner, but it earned a place in my bag to go with me on my trip , went with the Gillette Yellow as it is the blade I know the best , no nicks or burn. Very pleasing so far.

Will let you have an update one I have had more shaves with it.
