    Shaved with the English "One Minute" razor this morning. My mistake was squeezing one more round out of the Personna stainless. It did the job (BBS) but I'll redo it in a few days with a fresh blade. First impression is that the One Minute feels more efficient than the Techs it resembles, and it is LOUD. Haven't heard this much noise since the last time I used an SE.

    Hi Friends,

    Here is my Shave of the Day (23.07.2023)

    4145A6D0-C91A-4B61-AD37-5365309F1F75.jpeg
    Pre: Furbo Sansdolor // Razor: RazoRock German Slant // Blade: KAI // Soap: SW Pomona // Brush: home made Brass Synthetic // Aftershave: SW Pomona

    What a nice, comfortable and smooth shave this was. The KAI performed very well in the Razor. Smooth, gentle and effortless in 2,5 passes. The Soap made it very easy. Top notch. And this scent…:love029:

    All in all easy a 10 out of 10

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

    Greetings
    Thorsten

    Sunday morning’s Grand Freeze:

    L’Oréal Men Expert Facial Wash
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Rapira day 14
    MSC Frosted Bay Rum SS
    Prep ASB
    MSC Frosted Bay Rum AS Splash
    Aramis EdT

    It’s unbelievable how good these Rapira blades are - my 14th day using this one and it performed beautifully but it finally reached the end of the road. My brother Fernando’s Frosted Bay Rum soap and aftershave are two South African treasures with such a beautiful scent - the soap is tallow based, the lather is AWESOME, there’s lots of slickness to it, it delivers a lulu of a menthol sensation along with perfect skincare. The Prep gave me so much additional postshave care, the Frosted Bay Rum aftershave froze the crap out of me, and finally the magnificent Aramis fragrance put the icing on the cake. Three passes cleaned me up superbly - what a terrific BBS shave this was!

    Enjoy your Sunday and your shaves![​IMG]

    Dickinson's Witch Hazel

    The Archaic Eureka Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #371 Badger/Boar brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Ever-Ready Lather Catcher Razor and a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
