Brush: C&H 'Finned'
Soap: HAGS Undertow
Razor: CG Level 3
Blade: Wizamet
Post: HAGS Undertow & Molecule 01

Very close shave this morning despite a lapse in attention at one point on the neck. Otherwise a smooth yet loud shave whilst it cleared the path.

Had a sample of this Molecule 01 thrown in on an order for samples of TF Ombre and Vetiver, we'll see how it plays over the next few hours but with my nose i'm not getting much from it. To be fair it might have been better to wait for the splash on the HAGS to die down, we'll see.

Hope everyone has a grand day.

Cheers

Marc

A midday shave which is strange for me, but as my wife says, 'You're just strange...you tosser'

But whenever it arrived I did manage to put a shave together themed, 'Doncaster'

Rovers - Occams Enoch
Mallard - Kai Titan mild
Flying Scotsman - Hive-2
Danum - Signature Soaps (but) Londinium
Dandong - L'Occitane Cade balm
Yungblood - Abbate Y Mantia Krokos splash




Actually when I look at it all it isn't such a bad place after all and certainly had its own fair share of fame. And coal. It certainly gave me a great upbringing where I learnt all sorts of life skills. Fighting, setting fire to things, setting fire to more things, more fighting and how to catch crabs. Plus it gave me a good reason to run away to sea because 'I dint wan t'go darn pit'. The catching crabs lesson certainly came in handy.

So this shave was all about dispelling the myth that the Enoch really has the worse blade loading one could imagine. Dispelling the myth unable to be proven. It really is crap. Where it fails though is where the negative stops. What it does do is deliver the fastest shaves I know of with great ease, finish and accuracy. An absolute blinder as a razor. Just have to keep giving it a little nip now and then to prevent the blade from falling out. And yes it has. But this shave lived up to expectations and a cracking finish in an expedient manner. Team lather giving their usual soaping duties in their usual wonderful way.

Looking good (by my terms) and smelling great. The Abbate providing a superb air and enough pulling power to go crab fishing any day, or night, and a visit to the GU clinic a few days after.

Have a great evening chaps and if I say 'I love you all' it is probably best you give my love the cold shoulder. But if you want anything burning down just drop me a PM.

One week to go before a night of Beaver. The Otoboke type that is. My wife is going to give me a good slap when she finds out it there will be more gusset on show than an Anne Summers catalogue. Anyway, sorry to say it is going to have to be a whole week of Otoboke vids......
