    Thanks! Its a beautiful razor for sure, in my opinion better made than a super speed, but the head is bulkier and harder to shave in tight spaces with, but the actual shave performance is almost identical.

    Menthol Monday's Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Eskimo Tuxedo
    Jayaruh #360 Synthetic
    TNNSER
    Gem Blue Star CS
    CWR
    Osage Rub

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Eskimo Tuxedo Shave Soap face lathered well with Jayaruh #360 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the TNNSER razor with a Gem Blue Star CS SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Coate’s Lime Cream today. 20 seconds to load the Elite Razor/TGN Grade A Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Gillette 7-O’Clock Blue SP still in the Gillette NEW SC. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Anucci EdT.

    51CA9CBD-411A-4613-B39D-B97B994BB673.jpeg Menthol Monday:

    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Wilkinson Long Handle/Minora day 5
    Stirling Glacial Spearmint SS
    Stirling Glacial Spearmint ASB
    B&M Arctique AS Splash

    Oh my God, I’m frozen stiff after such an intense menthol bombardment. The Glacial Spearmint soap smelled up my bathroom in a very nice way, it gave me tons of fantastic lather that was so rich and super slick, it pummeled my face with Siberia-cold menthol, and it felt so good postshave. The matching balm and the Arctique aftershave brought the freeze to another level. Not even my barber who has sixty plus years of experience could have given me a better shave than this!

    Have a great week!

    Tolle Rasur mein lieber!

    Nach meiner Meinung sind diese zwei Seifen ziemlich ähnlich weil die Kühlwirkung so stark ist. Ausgezeichnete Hautpflege auch!
