    Greetings,

    Early Morning Shave,

    Last use of the Chinese Gillette Super Blue which has performed wonderfully throughout the week.

    The J.D. B30 is another Chinese super-speed clone that was kindly passed on to me, another razor i haven't used much like the Baili BD177 i used in my previous SOTD ,it has a good weight & balance to it, the moving parts are all in smooth working order with no uneven blade alignment or aggression gap difference. Another great every day shaver.

    It's been a while since i last used the Tabac shaving soap and forgot how much a wonderful slick protective lather this classic soap creates.

    A enjoyable 2 pass + pick ups close shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Nivea Men Fresh Moisturising Gel.

    My face is feeling smooth cool, & smelling divine.;)

    Stay safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

  14. Fabulous shave Gary. Glad you like the razor. I looked at that razor several mo the back but I have 13 DEs in my den already. Since I use my straights about 2/3’s of my shave I did not see the need to pick up another DE. That being said, now that I have the Southern Villa’s den to stock my thought process may change.
  15. Thank you Gary.
