    Greetings,

    Up with the larks again this morning.

    Carrying on with my Russian Made DE Blade run...

    A new shave set up to start the weekend...Its been a while since i last used the efficient Yaqi katana of which i will be using with all my shave sets this week...The Voskhod T.C. blade i find gets smoother with each outing they ain't the most aggressive Russian made blade for me but it matched together perfectly with the assertive katana making a smooth efficient duo...The Katana is one of the very few razors i found my shaving angle after the first 5-7 seconds feeling comfortable shaving with it throughout the shave.

    What i like about the Katana is the audio feedback which tells me it's cutting through my stubble and i have found the right shaving angle...The efficiency of this razor is amazing good i was very near BBS smooth after the second pass on both my face & head shave but carried on just for the sheer pleasure of the shave & to use up the remaining wonderful lather the Vitos Vegetale soap had provided....A comfortable impressive performance from the 1/2' Voskhod.

    A enjoyable close comfortable BBS face & head shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of P&G ~ Old Spice Original ASL.

    My face & precious swede are feeling silky smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

    One final shave with this Nacet blade. A little tugging and a little excess alum feedback means this blade is done - I’ll stop at 7 next time. Otherwise all in all decent and smooth for bed.

    Happy Healthy Shaves all.

    Saturday's Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Vintage Life Morning TOST Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #222 Synthetic
    Custom Wood Handle Enders Speed Razor
    Enders Speed Blade
    CWR
    Aqua Velva Musk AS

    The Vintage Life Morning TOST Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #222 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Custom Wood Handle Enders Speed Razor with an Enders Speed Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Saturday:

    warm shower with Asquith & Somerset Grapefruit & Orange bar soap
    Handsome Robs Sandalwood PSO
    Griffon XX Tonsorial Artist 2 passes
    Schick J 1 pass
    Schick Plus Platinum (4)
    Proraso Blue in a warm bowl
    Century boar
    Humphreys Citrus WH
    Murray & Lanman Orange Blossom

    Second time in the past few weeks trying my hand using a straight razor after setting them aside a few years ago. This one recently expertly honed by @DaltonGang performed beautifully despite my lack of skill.

    Temps are supposed to hit 90 in my area today so the citrus scents seemed right.

    Have a great weekend gents and sign up for the TSD raffle.

    Oh OK....but the one you sent me says Yardley New York on the front. It does mention other cities, and London is one of them.
