    Same hardware and software again…

    except for..

    …fresh blade Wilkinson Sword Made In England (1)

    It had a rather faded and fragile wrapper around the blade, so I think this has some age.

    Bit rough on the initial pass, but smoothed out nicely with the 2nd application of Stirling MITA

    Super smooth, damage free, no fuss shave, finishing off with the Burberry Hero

    Have a great Sunday one and all

    Lather Catcher Sunday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Lea Shave Cream
    Jayaruh #454 Two-band Badger
    Gem Jr. Bar Lather Catcher
    Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade
    CWR
    Humphrey's Witch Hazel
    Lustray Spice After Shave

    The Lea Shave Cream was face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #454 Two-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gem Jr. Bar Lather Catcher Razor and the Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Lustray Spice After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Sunday morning:

    Cool shower
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Perma Sharp day 4
    Bundubeard Klipspringer’s Kick SS
    Nip Man ASB
    Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS Splash

    These Perma Sharps are great blades - they seem to be very similar to the Crystals. The Klipspringer’s Kick soap from Bundubeard has such a lovely coffee/peppermint scent, it’s glycerine based yet it lathers very easily, it’s quite slick, it’s supposed to be the least mentholated of the “Kick” soaps but it still gives a very nice cooling effect, and it leaves a really comfortable postshave feeling. My dear brother Jaco in Pretoria, South Africa knows what he’s doing - let me say that. The Nip Man balm from the UK is very pleasantly scented and also very cooling as well as soothing, and the Aqua Velva aftershave went on with a good icy jolt. Another brilliant three pass BBS shave - no issues whatsoever!

    Wishing you all a good Sunday - be well and stay safe![​IMG]
