    With Sunday being the 1st day of Spring I decided to give my new razor and soap (a big thank you to @LuvWetShavin for the PiF) a spin.

    TDS Wheat Shave Cream face lathered w/Omega 6151 Pure (1st time w/this cream. Made an excellent slick, thick, cushiony lather. Very impressed indeed)
    eVAHS razor w/a fresh Derby blade (The eVAHS is quite a bit larger than any razor I've used & will take some time to get used to, however, a very comfortable shave. I'm planning a razor review after a few more shaves)
    Witch Hazel rinse, followed by Nivea Cooling ASB finishing w/Fine Platinum aftershave. (The Platinum paired very well w/the YSL scent of the cream)

    3-passes for an excellent BBS shave!

    I really enjoyed the razor and soap. This razor will definitely take some getting used to due to its shear size (110g). prior to the eVAHS, my heaviest razor was my Fatboy at about (75g) which doesn't even approach the eVAHS. However, it gives a very smooth comfortable shave.

    Jayaruh #54 synthetic
    Schick M2 Adjustable
    Personna
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayers Rose Petal WH
    Florida Water

    Arko Stick Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #54 synthetic brush. Two passes with my Schick M2 Adjustable razor and a Personna blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayers Rose Petal WH and then Florida Water After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Doug, the TGN Finest is one of my favorite knots. It has good backbone and is fairly soft at the same time. I look forward to your thoughts when you get yours.
