    I really enjoy using this razor, a DFS attained effortlessly and I don't even find the extra short handle at all bothersome now I'm used to it.
    The Tabac soap and splash were their usual brilliant selves.

    Razor - Edwin Jagger "Kelvin"
    Blade - Shark Super Stainless *7th shave
    Shave Brush - Vigshaving 26mm Nylon Synthetic
    Pre-shave Oil - Lather & Wood "unscented"
    Shave Soap - Gold Dachs "Sandelholz"
    Aftershave - Fine "Santal Absolut"
    Post-shave Balm - Retseliney Luxury Skin Care Hyaluronic Acid Face Serum
    Deodorant - Love Myself Organics "Sandalwood" Blend
    Fragrance - Pasha de Cartier

    The Gold Dachs puck has had 4 shaves and still has the logo indented and seems indestructible and puts out tons of lather. After several uses it puts out its best lather it seems. Today's shave is BBS and has mostly to do with the great thick protection the soap afforded. I really think this soap is underrated. I think it's going to last forever in that red mug. How can it put out so much soap with so little of the puck being lost?

    Great shave with the Paradigm Titanium razor. The Tony Forsyth brush whipped up an excellent lather from the Storybook Soapworks soap. Great scent from Chatillon Lux!

    Razor: Gillette "Guard" Cartridge
    Blade: Single Edge Cart (4)
    Pre Shave Oil: Homemade
    Lather: Gillette Foamy (can)
    AS: Aqua Velva/Afta
    Newspaper Date: Jan. 6,1943

    Unbelievable shave with a toy razor! DFS++. A 2 pass, WTG/ATG with more clean up than I like, but OK. Not quite as smooth as with my Personna Flex and Twinjector, but not bad. It IS worth what I paid and then some. I will get a lot of pretty good shaves for my 8 bucks. God Bless.
