It was time to refresh my senses to one of my favorite razors. Stainless steel, micarta scales, fancy laser etch. This is supposed to be known as 'the edge retention king', sure hope so. This and my first Sunday Shaver make up my targets in my 'Adventures With Harry Headroom, Home Honer' episodes. I really do like this Et Tu. Opens a little more 'earthly' than current Brut splash. If that opening was a hanger, it would be a negative for me, but it mellows to the nice blend that had to inspire the 'essence of man' subtitle.
Tuesday 4th June (am) Cold Water Shave Heno de Pravia Glycerine Soap De Vergulde Hand Shaving Soap Omega 10065 Boar Brush RazoRock Black Hawk V2 with a generic AC Type generic Blade Alum and Rinse Witch Hazel Aloe Vera Gel Denim Musk AS These Chinese Blades have me confused. No way do they come close to the sharpness of a Feather. They have to work hard.......but the end result is perfect with no sting at all from the Alum Test.. If it was a Feather I would bin it....but the results tell a different story. 3 passes for a face feeling finish and still very good 12 hrs on.

Tonight's shave was with a Russian Beauty. Haaaa!!! It was a restoration razorI got from Russian a long while back. I had a perfectly smooth 2 pass shave, that left me BBS. Zero issues, from this Very Noisey razor. I recommend everyone have at least 1 vintage Russian Razor. Not the most beautiful, usually, but fantastic shavers. Razor- Stiz, "Dawn", Made in Moscow. 1975 Brush- Stirling Boar Cream- Derby Lavender Aftershave- Florida Water
