    Last nights shave:
    1949 Milord with a new Feather blade
    Stirling Gentleman soap
    Perfecto badger brush
    Witch Hazel with Tea Tree Oil
    Stirling Gentleman Splash.

    I finally found a razor that likes the Feather blade:bounce017:or I finally got comfortable enough with this type of shaving to use it. Now I guess I'm gonna have to buy 50 or 100 of them just to have on standby. I guess the stars were lined up just right or something because I got a really good shave out of this combo. Ya me

    It's hard to go wrong with a Milord or a Feather. :)

    As a hobbyist who uses a wide variety of tools to shave, it is nice to have so many options.

    Not yet, that won't be around for a week or two. I'm not too savvy on the Tech razors but I believe this to be 46 - 50 fat handle, the bar is triangle slot, if that means anything. It's a good mild shaver for sure. I might put my SS and Aristocrats away for a while. I'm still working on that rfb in the UK too. ;)
