    Blade: Chinese Schick
    Razor: Schick I1 injector
    Brush: Omega 10049 boar
    Lather: Mitchell's Wool Fat
    Post: Witch hazel, Fine American Blend aftershave
    WTG, XTG (jaw and neck)

    Fine shave this morning as usual for Fridays. Terrific lather swiped away by an efficient and smooth injector. The big boar whips up plenty of suds. One slow, deliberate pass with clean up on the neck and jaw. Finished with Fine American Blend to top off a great start to Friday.

    Here's to a terrific day!

    Hi everyone. Today's shave:

    IMG_0294.JPG

    - WSP "Ol' Kentucky"
    - Virginia Sheng Silvertip
    - Tückmar Shavette with Sputnik
    - Intesa "antirughe" AS


    First shave with my "new" Tückmar shavette - actually my first shave ever with a shavette that uses half DE blades. Very nice and smooth.
    The WSP-soap is great stuff - flawless performance, very pleasant scent. The only thing I don't like about it: The tin is too small and filled to the rim - so lathering is a mess. But the soap is very soft so it's easy to just put it into a bigger container.

    For a change I used a very nice Bulgarian cream called Top Ten Sensitive which I bowl-lathered in an empty Glacial Lemon Chill container. I was rewarded with thick, rich, dense lather which really buried my face and gave me a nice cooling sensation - not a strong one, but still enough to let you that this cream is mentholated. I did my usual three passes and got a good BBS shave, and instead of going with the Skin Bracer I opted for the Italian Barber Amici and I enjoyed the lovely scent which I cannot describe, as well as its mild menthol effect.

    Wishing everyone a great weekend!
