It uses the same blades s the Feather SS and DX

The Polo 12 is a monster of brush, just a few hairs smaller than the BK 12.

I bet they were a lot alike!

This Dorko arrived yesterday, it has been a razor I have been trying to acquire for some time. The factory edge was awesome, I was very surprised. First shave out of the gate.... epic.

Morning gents!

Just looking for some recommendations for a non-greasy post shave lotion/balm/splash that will help to condition my skin... I have been using Dior Sauvage alot lately, but it is leading to some drying out of my skin (nothing major - noticeable nonetheless) and I am looking at other options. The Nivea Sensitive stuff leads to be ending up with spots - possibly blocks my pores? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. (Must be available in the UK, and not be crazily expensive!)

Thanks in advance.

SOTD:
Today was the last shave for a while with the reitzer, that stuff is absolutely world class, I'd go as far as to call it the South African Arko because of the incredible value for money. Next shave will be with that USA made superspeed my dad was using and the 14th use on the feather!!!!!!
I'll be switching out the reitzer for the col Conk lime too.

Razor: Jagen David E01
Blade: feather hi-stainless (13)
Soap: reitzers perfect shave.
Aftershave: Dave's menthol aftershave.

The jaw line can be done of you find the way it works for you. I close my mouth then shave the bottom where it is flat jusy below the jaw line. Then I open my mouth, twist the head and shave the top of the jaw line. Both times I use my free hand to streach the skin. It works for me.

This is the last piece of my shave puzzle! I can get it smooth with LOADS of buffing with a tech, but the whole thing that I am after is avoiding the need for lots of passes over my face! I'll get there with all the help I'm getting!

Fatip razors are beautiful, theyre my favourite 3 piece razors, great value for money too.
If i had to choose one Razor id choose my Fatip piccolo in a heart beat.
Great to see the grande getting some love too.

I have, use, like ; Trumpers Lime Skinfood, Proraso Eucalyptus Oil & Menthol Aftershave Balm, Lucky Tiger Aftershave & Face Tonic. Not much of any of these is required. I will use one of the above everyday, then a fragrant alcohol containing splash.

None of the above leaves a greasy feel.

A good source here at TSD may be @Tim Spencer
He has a wide exposure on products and usually posts over in the Shave of the Day. I read his stuff and value his opinions.

I would not think you would have trouble finding my recommendations in the UK although Lucky Tiger is USA based.

Hope this helps.

Beautiful shave, and congrats on the new razor!!!
