    Nothing else to do, so I might as well post this right now!

    Friday morning's fun:

    Neutrogena Men Facial Wash :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :Animatedfrozensmily: :Animatedfrozensmily:
    Razorock Plissoft 26 mm Synthetic
    Junjie/Astra day 5
    Tcheon Fung Sing Sottozero SS :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :Animatedfrozensmily: :Animatedfrozensmily:
    Folsom & Company Shambala AS :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :Animatedfrozensmily: :Animatedfrozensmily: :Animatedfrozensmily:

    I'll be changing back to my Junjie DE but I'm sticking with my Plissoft - at least until perhaps Sunday. Man, that new brush makes everything I give it lather up so nicely, and this Sottozero soap should be no exception. I love the minty scent it has, and the nice cooling effect with its good moisturizing. The Shambala is a real F&C treasure - its scent is to die for and so is its longevity! ;) :D

    A great weekend to everyone in advance! :)

    I haven't shaved with Soap Commander in two months and specifically, Endurance (Spice) hasn't been used in about 4 months. I had a sample puck stored and I decided to consolidate, so I pressed the sample puck into my 65% full tub. I had also forgotten how HUGE these tubs are and how much product you get. Amazing.
    I learned this about SC this morning. I learned that it could be very easy for the user to not work this lather enough, or get enough water worked in. SC goes on easy and makes a thick, rich lather quickly...however, I found it to be too sticky. So I continued to add droplets of water to my synthetic and work the lather until I really had a shiny, slick product. Excellent slickness to be exact. Protection: A1. The scent is a nice dupe of the Shulton OS.
    I have decided to stick with this soap for the next 6 shaves and pair it with my other 6 vintage OS products. Thanks for reading.

    Nice report, I have a tuck of those blades that I have yet to try, I want to try the strop with one and see if it works. Another project for another day.

    I have heard stropping modern blades with the auto strop is borderline useless. But I don't have one so I couldn't say for sure
