    Brush: APShave Co 24mm Cashmere Synthetic.
    Bowl Lather.
    Bowl: Tesco's Ceramic 'Cosmo' Side Bowl.
    Lather: La Toja Shaving Stick.
    Blade: Treet Platinum. (D1)

    Greetings,

    Relaxing Sunday morning shave.

    The mildly aggressive 92R cut through my stubble with effortless ease.

    A comfortable close shave to finish the month off superbly. In July I will be doing a focus with all my Gillette & Wilkinson Sword DE razors pairing them up with a variety of blades that I haven't had in my blade rotation for quite some time.

    Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Cien Men Sensitive ASB.

    My face is feeling super smooth & smelling divine.;)

    Keep safe and enjoy your Sunday ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

    Beautiful setup and shave Barry. A non-wetshaving friend gifted me an old Parker Variant years ago. It was given to him from someone else before he passed it to me. It was aggressive and it would bite me constantly. It wasn't my technique, but It was the razor. It had more than enough chatter because it wasn't closing correctly so that the blade was loose. Unfortunately, I had to toss it.

    I get tired of the same product(s) after 3 days, thus wouldn't be able to make it to 30.

    Another nice shave this morning, marking the end of June. 0:50 at the loaading dock-this Mike's soap really gets onto the brush fast. Clean and clear all over. Goose-eggs for cuts, Knicks, Polka-dots. 2 passes. The Osage A.S, is a better choice for today than it was yesterday, as it's warmer and more humid today. No cologne today, so the Osage was the closer. Here's a hint-for the second month in a row I will begin it with the same shave as I eneded the previous. As Outstanding As It Gets for today.

    Thank you Joe. I've read lots of negative quality issue's on parker razors however, Ive been very fortunate with mine non have had any enlignment problems. It takes more than a few shaves to adjust to the steeper shaving angle to get the best results with parker razors. I yet to try any of the new offerings as I find what I have gives me more than acceptable shaving results.

    Super Sunday shave Gary. I don’t have any Yaqi brushes or razors, but it seems they perform well above their price point.
