    Beautiful morning: it's gray and raining.

    I shaved with a soap unused for eons: it is not exceptional, but it does its job very decently: good slickness and protection.
    As for the scent is, to my nostrils, a floral, similar to Eucris.
    I'm not unhappy I got it: I'm unhappy I didn't get the ceramic bowl!

    One of a few modern takes on a GEM SE blade razor. This 3D version designed by Roger Quintero, was printed via Treatstock quite cheaply. It's very nimble, shaves beautifully, and is a doddle to rinse. The best bit was the great result.

    gibbsno13a.jpg gibbsno13b.jpg

    French made razor, later model version that takes DE blades without any modifications. The razor cap also allows for different aggression levels I used the more aggressive + side to shave with. This is your typical Gibbs razor, shaves like a filet knife and super efficient. Glass like BBS finish achieved with only 1 layer of skin removed in the process.

    My apologies for the indoor picture.
    The shave was close and comfortable. Really liking this shave soap. Whips up good and is slick enough. It always helps to have a good razor, blade, and brush.
