Absolutely lovely. Wish I picked up the matching splash when it was available. You never know, James may well make another comeback? Soul Objects, a German online retailer was the last vendor that had some OSP stock the last time I searched.

Last night's shaving effort and this one is themed, 'hfy57ngatc' as randomly typed up by just hitting any key on the keyboard'

Wow! That last one amazed even me in the world of Randomness.
'See I told you it would read a load of old shqt if you just hit any key'
A razor which probably sits at the back of the pack a little too much and yet always gives a great sense of reward from using. A great delivery this time around, big grin value, and to the back you go again. Thank you Mr 1912.
And a
to the MDC and Cadman
And a to the support band for the Beaver the other night. A bit of cheating here as they are actually South Korean, but hey oh you can't have evrvhhdbehjbdhd6893gg.....

SOTD 08-May
Brush: Chubby 2 SiLVERTiP
Soap: A&E Vanille de Tabac
Razor: Koraat 6/8
Post: ADE Vanille de Tabac
Decent shave, excellent scent. Struggled a little with the lather this morning and it wasn't for lack of loading, very odd. Starting to favour the thinner grinds at the moment, even my prized 72-V isn't getting as much of a look in as the 472 or 17. When I play with the Koraat configurator again it's definitely going to be a full/extra hollow.
Hope everyone has a grand day!
Cheers
Marc

Soap & Aftershave Ariana & Evans Peach & Cognac
Brush BOTI 26mm Fan Silvertip
Razor Wade & Butcher 13/16 Wedge
The soap's lather and scent are good. The brush is a joy to use.
This razor was put through the HBA around 200 laps with just water. The edge is ok..smooth and keen enough but wanted it to be better. Overall a dfs+ finish after 3passes...

RR Hawk V1
Schick Proline ( 1 )
Pitralon Polar A/S Lotion
A much nicer Shave today with a fresh blade and a rich creamy lather, the budget Hawk delivered an extremely smooth and close finish. With the addition of the Ikon handle I think that I prefer it to the Hawk V3- OC.

Ikon B, RK blade
Vintage ER synthetic re-knot
Quiet morning, comfortable relaxed shave, bbs in 2 passes plus pick ups. Bliss. Who needs to spend £771 on a razor when something like this beauty does the job perfectly well?
Grandkids have departed the house, now eerily quiet, have I gone suddenly and inexplicably deaf?
I feel like I need to be active but the dull dreary weather is telling me otherwise. Oh to be in in England on a May Bank Holiday.
Have an enjoyable day fellas!
