    SOTD:
    Finally on holiday, so my SOTD posts will definitely increase now that i have more time on my hands. Retired the feather hi-stainless after 35 flawless uses, definitely very impressed with it. Replaced it with a super max blue diamond which is proving to be a very good blade, if it ends up having the same longevity as the gillette 7 o clock sharp edges ill have to definitely consider getting a 100 pack.

    Shave 1:
    Razor: Wilkinson sword tto
    Brush: Wilkinson sword classic shave
    Blade: supermax blue diamond (1)
    Soap: bundubeard coffee
    Aftershave: brut by Fabergé

    Shave 2:
    Razor: Wilkinson sword tto
    Brush: Omega 49
    Blade: supermax blue diamond (2)
    Soap: arko shave stick
    Aftershave: Old spice white water

    Shave 3:
    Razor: Wilkinson sword tto
    Brush: Wilkinson sword classic shave
    Blade: supermax blue diamond (3)
    Soap: Arko shave stick
    Aftershave: None.

    Overall some very good shaves this week with great performance from the new blade as well as the arko. The Wilkinson sword brush is definitely better for bowl lathering but proved to be good for face lathering too, although it does lack a bit of back bone for that.[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    I do not know if I am more pleased or embarrassed!
    A pity we live so far away one another...

    I am! (As long as I keep taking my pink pills... I keep the blue ones for another purpose!)

    Oh... Thank you! :)

    Wednesday

    Prep: Warm Shower-Stirling Scots Pine Sheep
    Soap: Bulgari Man in Black
    Razor: Vintage Gillette Fat Boy
    Blade: Vintage Personna 74 Tungsten (11)
    Brush: RazoRock/Zenith Chubby Extra Silvertip-28mmx51mm
    Aftershave: Bulgari Man in Black EdT

    WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angles for my beard)

    Bulgari Man in Black today. 20 seconds to load the RazoRock/Zenith Chubby Extra Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Personna 74 Tungsten still in the vintage Gillette Fat Boy. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Bulgari Man in Black EdT.

    I googled it and it seems they don't sell it in a proprietary bowl...
    Is it correct?

    Wednesday morning:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Minora day 4
    RVT Frosty Bay Rum SS
    Prep ASB
    Krampert’s Bay Rum AS Splash

    I love these Minora blades - in fact I think they’re almost as good as the Astra Greens. The Frosty Bay Rum soap’s delightful scent filled the bathroom, it delivered two boatloads of rich, super slick lather, and the menthol sensation felt heavenly. A nice massage with the Prep, a couple of splashes of the Krampert’s Bay Rum aftershave and I’m going to get a haircut - my barber will eat his heart out when he sees how BBS I am, and while I’m at the barbershop I’ll get a manicure and a pedicure!
