    Hi Friends,

    Here my belated Sunday Shave (14.05.2023)

    5E497EE1-62B3-48FC-A0F2-756FC10ECA39.jpeg
    Pre: PAA Cube // Razor: RazoRock 37 German Slant // Blade: Asco Orange // Soap: House of Mammoth Damocles // Brush: Shavemac Synthetic // Aftershave: House of Mammoth Damocles Balm

    Outstanding shave. I have used the RazoRock 37 Slant only 1 time since i bought it several years ago. In my classic Wetshaving Beginning (around 2012) i had a Merkur 37c on loan and had a very bad experience. But hey…why not give it a try today, knowledge and technic have improved since then.

    Boy what a great shave. The razor was smooth to the touch, gentle and thoroughly. I was even surprised of the blade, which i used for the very first time. Velvety on the skin, great sharpness and gave me a BBS Shave in 2,5 passes. The Soap and the Balm are top notch. Great great lather and skincare.

    Easy a 10 out of 10

    Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

    Greetings
    Thorsten

    The Williams Mug Shave Soap lathered well with the Heldtite Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Eversharp Schick G and a Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with PSC Caffeinated AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Wednesday morning:

    Hot shower
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Rapira day 3
    Bombay Shaving Company SC
    Prep ASB
    Aqua Velva Sport AS Splash

    This Super Speed is such a precious treasure to me - for as long as I’ll live I’ll never part with it. The way it performs for me is unbelievable. The Bombay Shaving Company cream is awesome stuff - it’s from India, it has a very pleasant scent which seems to be a blend of tea tree oil and aloe vera, it lathers like a beast, it has plenty of slickness, there’s a slight menthol sensation, and it gives a very comfortable, soothing postshave feeling. The Prep and the Aqua Velva Sport aftershave finished the job superbly. Three glorious passes gave me a dynamite BBS shave that I enjoyed immensely!

    Enjoy your day and your shaves - be well and stay safe![​IMG]
