This happy chappy watched me shave today. What's not to like about that? This cream is so slick with a really unique but pleasant smell. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to try this @donnie_arko

Pre - Shower / Face wash
Cream - TOBS Mr Taylor
Brush - RazoRock Bruce Synth
Razor - MÜHLE R89
Blade - Wilkinson (2)
Post - Alum followed by moisturiser with SPF

I'm still seeing how the synthetic brush works with creams and soaps. It does a better job at building lather, yet I prefer the experience with a real badger brush. Back to the badger tomorrow just to see. Stepping back it may not be as good as I first thought.

Three pass and a nice close comfortable shave. No feedback from alum.

Guessing a lighter handle helps calm the viscous aspect of the Tech. Which would always be a good thing.

Very nice looking bowl!

Thanks
I found it in a charity shop and originally used it for a puck of Lea classic. But as it rattled around in the curved base I had a revelation and decided to grate a Palmolive stick into it. And that worked brilliantly.
Having such a good shave today, I've decided to continue using the Palmolive for the next few shaves.

Really nice lather. Scent orangy, creamy and slick. Brush is one of the best.
Tried the razor and blade combo today and it was great! Smooth, still sharp enough and most importantly it is comfortable!
3 multiple passes with some buffing. No weepers nor irritation. BBS to DFS result. Excellent shave today. Rating 9.7

What's the Parker Semi Slant like?

It's ok. I'm going to try a different blade in it next. I'm only two shaves in with it but it doesn't feel like it will be dethroning any of my favourites soon

I think it is just a bit more nimble still has the same bite , I really like it but you gotta concentrate and want a nice lather ! Thank you Chris for the wonderful gift.
