Date: 20 July 2017 Brush: - RazoRock Plissoft Big Bruce Synthetic 26/63mm Lather: - Wilkinson Sword Shave Stick (european version grated into a plastic tub) Razor: - Parker Variant Adjustable in Satin Chrome (WTG #5, XTG #5, ATG #2) Blade: - Gillette Silver Blue #1 Post: - Thayers Witch Hazel 'Unscented' / Bulldog Original Aftershave Balm Fragrance: - YSL L’Homme EDT Yesterday I've bought 3 Wilkinson Sword shave sticks european version from a local chemist store in London for £1.25 each and 1 plastic round tub 250ml size with a screw lid for 40p, I've grated all three sticks into a tub ready for shaving this is a tallow & coconut oil with glycerine and lanolin which smell very classic type scent for a light blue colour soap. The Wilkinson Sword shaving soap is not too bad for some reason it seem to dry out my skin pretty quick against Palmolive Classic shave stick (strange), the lather is very slick, cushy and it doesn't soak up a lot of water which is perfect.................Chow!!
One more nice shave for the week but a little bit of irritation on this one put a little too much pressure on the lower neck causing some slight razor burn. Not too bad though just a slight sting from the alum will probably be gone by morning.

Thank you Steve. This brush is a work of art in my opinion. It is a pleasure to use, very ergonomic, and it whips the heck out of soap while being pretty at the same time.
Last night's shave, on vacation, was with a trusted American straight razor. I had a very smooth 2 pass shave, that left me BBS. I had two small wheelers, because I'm not use to the Hotel bathrooms, lighting and all. Razor- Shapliegh 12/16th Straight Razor Brush- Semogue 1800 boar Soap- Stirling Ozark Mountain Aftershave- Pinaud Clubman. Sorry, no photos

SOTD July 20, 2017 Blade: Feather Pro Razor: RazoRock Black Hawk Brush: Semogue 1520 boar Lather: Soap Commander Courage Post: Witch hazel, Speick aftershave WTG, touch-up Easy shave this morning with this combination. I really enjoy the Black Hawk SE. The Soap Commander Courage was great as usual and lathered easily with the Semogue boar. This is the 8th shave on this sample - still going strong. I may be using this one into next month! Nice shave overall. Have a great day!
Thank you Doug. I really like the Cambridge and Oxford soap. The performance is top notch. However, I do find the scent strength a little light. The Reef Point Tranquility tallow based soap has a very similar scent of lavender and peppermint. The scent strength is much stronger and the extra kick of peppermint oil provides a cooling sensation. When they are both gone, I will repurchase Tranquility.
