My first use of a Barrister & Mann soap and I'm very impressed indeed. It's easy to dial in, plenty of cushion, plenty of slickness and v.good post shave.
I like the scent too, when lathered the rosemary becomes more evident and I've now got a hankering for loin chops.
Using DEs for five days in a row is probably four days too many but it makes me appreciate a fine SE even more.
My skin's, soft, smooth, and smelling medicinal.
Happy Shaving one and all.

Another fantastic 2 pass + some buffing around the chin. 3 shaves in and the shaves have been nearly flawless to be honest. Extremely well balanced razor with fit and finish that’s worthy of it’s price. Exhibits excellent smoothness throughout the whole adjustment range with better than average efficiency, especially up towards the higher end with relatively good blade feel yet still maintaining a very good smooth feel. It has been a delight to use and certainly no regrets in acquiring the razor. Have a great day and shaves Gents....

This is my favorite 1912 - seems like its a chrome finish and I LOVE the look of the handle - this was a cheapo and cleaned up so awesome..

Great shave today, with an Extra Hollow Ground razor. I had 3 days of very thick, wiry growth, and this razor mowed it down, like it wasnt there. The results were a BDBS(Baby Dolphin Butt Smooth) shave. This a fantastic, non-big named razor.

Razor- M.L.Brandt Cutlery Company, Germany & New York. "Brandt No.115". Extra Hollow Ground blade.
Brush- B400 By Tom(@twhite ). WD Boar Hair Knot. 2 hairs shed. Tied for #1 of my favorite brushes.
Soap- Arko/Avon Spicy scented.
Aftershave- Vintage Shulton Old Spice. Mmmmm Mmmmmm Good.

Awesome setup. I enjoyed every part of this shave.
