Greetings,

Another early morning shave.

It's been a while since i last shaved with my merkur 39C paired together with Perma-Sharp super blade was a fantastic efficient duo.

I have a great fondness for german made razors the 34C, 37C & bigger sibling 39C, have always performed wonderfully as have their german cousins the Muhle R89 and the very efficiently impressive R41(2014) version, are all superb razors at a very reasonable price.

A comfortable 3 pass + pick ups near bbs smooth shave with no errors to report...I should really use my slant razors more often.

Finishing to the shave off with a generous dollop of Nivea Men ~ Sensitive Cooling Post Shave Balm.

My face is feeling super smooth, cool & smelling devine.

Enjoy your day, ladies & gentlemen.

Razor ~ Cobra Classic
Blade ~ Schick Proline
Soap ~ Grandstaff Soap Co - Vetiver
Brush ~ Semogue 2018 LE Badger
Post ~Thayers Original Astringent
Frag ~ Guerlain - Vetiver

My first day out of seven with this soap that I had bought from a fellow member over at ATG used once or twice and then forgotten about!
I set it against the Cobra, if this soap was lacking the Cobra would find it out!
No need to have worried, it produced a creamy slick protective lather that handled the Cobra with ease.
I had a close but comfortable shave without picking up any nicks or irritation, a good start for this now discontinued soap.

Have a good day folks.............P.

Happy birthday @Tony'schin and @donnie_arko
 
Thur 5th Sept.

RazoRock Syn. 24mm
Cyril Salter Solid Soap
Alu. Hawk/ S/S Handle
Schick Proline [ 6 ]
Jaguar Prestige A/S Lotion

The Alu. Hawk works very well for me with the addition of this S/S Handle, It is now a very efficient and manoeuvrable Razor. With the kind of lather that the CS soap provides it would be difficult not to have a smooth Shave.Not only is the Shave smooth but the quality of finish delivered would give some of my more costly AC/SEs a run for their money.
