It was great. Not one bit of disappointment. The vendor put a silky smooth buttery JNAT edge on it.
Today was its maiden voyage on my whiskers and I’m looking forward to many more enjoyable shaves from it!
Thanks for asking

Soap Catie's Bubbles Irish Coffee
Brush Yaqi 26mm Moka Express
Razor ZY430
Post & Aftershaves Ice Water + Stirling Witchhazel Orange Chill + Hyaluronic + Clubman Whiskey Woods
Very nice aromatic & delicious scent from this soap! The lather was creamy and slick too...
Shave with this razor was just ok. Although smooth it's not removing many whiskers, especially from the jawline to neck area. Due to time constraints...managed just did 2 passes without any issues for sas--result.

So I'm finally going to do one of these with a decent picture.
It takes 2.0 to Tango
Pre: hot flannel, Pears Transparent soap, 2 drops of Bio Oil
Brush: Haryali badger cheap'n'cheerful
Soap: Extro Cosmesi Arancia Italiana
Razor: Koraat 14/2.0 custom Sunburst
Post: Bio Oil
AS: Zara Man Vibrant Leather Oud.
First run with my new pride and joy razor. I feel very privileged. After a lovely hot towel to the face and a good wash with the Pears, I put the smallest amount of Bio oil on, then whipped up a lovely cushion of Arancia Italiana with my little wooden badger very wet a la "Marco method". The citrus aroma lasts all the way through 3 passes and is pleasant without ever being too in yer face.
With some trepidation of the large bellied square point Koraat, I touched down and it slid smoothly across my skin razing everything in its path with ease. WTG/XTG/ATG, and not a nick, just a DFS. A generous few drops of Bio oil to calm and protect the skin after a very close shave, and a light spray of Oud to complete the experience. Lovely lazy Saturday.

A nice refreshing shave after a lovely warm day just can’t be beaten ! Today I used a sample of Pannacrema Nera kindly gifted to me by @RussellR5555 thank you Russ the scent on it is an absolute favourite it’s very hard to chose between this one and the Rossa and is definitely one I will be picking up a full jar of..paired it with the Acqua Di Parma Mirra as seen in Russell’s SoTd a nice spicy a citrus that finished the shave off just nicely ! Feeling super smooth

I think the Nera for me is my favourite of the 4 Pannacrema's

The scent is intoxicatingly good…Pannacrema, SV and Czech & Speak are my absolute favourites it really is difficult to chose between them but if I could have nothing else but these 3 brands I would be one very happy shaver
