    Another refreshed blade - now shaving a half notch higher than before. I promptly muted the point after it traced a fine line by my ear on the first stroke. :shocked003:

    Wonderful shave this morning. I switched to the Feather Pro blade from the Super and it just works in this razor. It was smoother than the Super and I had zero alum burn at the end of the shave. The Stirling products preformed flawlessly and I love this scent. This was the first soap and aftershave set I ever purchased and it's still a favorite. Have a great day folks!

    I was a bit leery of this blade with the C OC plate, it's one of the more aggressive of my go to blades and I got some ATG biting from the infamously smooth TREET Platinum with this head, happy to report the razor likes this head as much as it likes the Gillette blades I use, works very well; wondering if the Treet experience was a fluke or a bit of new razor learning, going to try it again soon.

    Wow. Stunning array of brushes. And you've matched them to sets beautifully. I have a question though. What model is that gold & black, long handled Gillette in the posh looking Gillette box? Also, what are the makers of the brushes?

    Bleu de Chanel EDT is a solid scent. I haven't reached for it much since I bought it, but today I felt like smelling it. I might pull it off the shelf a small handful of times this year.

    I have two Stoylin Soap&A.S. sets currently...(Spice and Sandpiper). They're gonna be around for a long time, I'd say.

    I always liked the, what was then called HTGAM Cavendish. Excellent pipe tobacco scent.

    I had the Rte 66 Cavendish. Now that I think of it, it was a much milder tobacco scent than that of Local Gent.
