Tabac Soap
Proraso Splash
Proraso Balm

This was the best shave I've ever gotten from a feather and slant. The last time I used a feather in the slant which was about 3 months ago netted some blood loss. Not much, but some none the less. This time I didn't have a single spot, or any irritation at all. None, zilch, nadda, zero.

Very lackluster shave owing probably to the Popular, a toy of a razor. The Lord Click resembles a disposable and costs nothing, while this razor is just a joke.

I really cannot complain about today's shave. By the way, Five Fives cream is from Egypt, and it is very good stuff--great lather, a nice lemony scent, and it has menthol!

 

This today, although not with that razor, I do not how but seems that when stropping on the linen I nicked the edge...and also scrapped the new Kanayama strop, that is how I found out the edge was damaged...:mad:

Yesterday's shave was so great that I did it again today. And it was wonderful again.
