Razor: Razoroc Game Changer .84
Blade: Wilkinson Sword India (3)
Brush: Simpson Duke 3 in Best
Soap & Splash: B&M Reserve Lavender
Still trying to decide between the .84 CC and the .68 OC for a few days growth. The 84 is very efficient but does leave my skin a little more irritated, although in use it is more comfortable than the OC. Not normally a fan on lavender, but B&M has such a relaxing scent.

Soap Saponificio Varesino Opuntia
Brush Zenith 28mm Scrubby Boar
Razor Dorko 43 Near Wedge
Aftershave RazoRock Mudder Focker Splash
Fantastic performance from this soap. The excellent brush whips a creamy, slick lather and smells good + the splash...even better. This razor for today's shave was just super...after stroping on the Kangaroo leather...the edge was soft buttery smooth and very efficient. 3passes for a bbs-dfs finish...

Brush: C&H 'Eyespot'
Soap: A&E Snake Venom
Razor: CG Gen 1 Level 3
Blade: Wizamet (Z-1)
Post: A&E Snake Venom AS
Nice shave this morning, growth was slow back after yesterday's straight so the level 3 was a bit of overkill.
Otherwise not much else to report, nice kick off to the week and with luck it'll continue to go just as well.
Hope everyone has a cracking day.
Cheers

A much better go of it this morning. An entirely smoother, closer and more comfortable shave. Roughness = poor prep with this razor.Yaqi Dandelion

really great head shave this sunny morning. first time using a 7'oclock yellow (which suited the mild DE89 style head really well) and the proraso sandalwood cream (which I'll definitely be ordering more of in future. really nice scent and performance). brush and pre-shave (that I used as a post shave cream) part of a generous pif from @exists.
after the usual 1-2 minute hot towel prep:
Webly frankenrazor/SI
Colonel Conk superbadger/Klar Kabinett
Lucky Tiger aftershave
Old Spice (vintage) after shave used as cologne
Typing at Big G recently got me thinking about using this razor more often. It's a Stahly head stuck onna Weber handle that fits me well. Paired with a sharp blade it's a real treat wacking them whiskers away. This combo has nice weight and good balance and overall is pretty darn good.
BBS results,
Martin

Another SE in my arsenal which is ruthlessly efficient, I normally get twelve to fifteen shaves out of a blade. The balm is now running very low probably another four applications until finished, will replace via the internet.
