Enjoyed using the proraso tonight, first time I've used since I first started DE shaving. Excellent performance, post shave topped up nicely by Bart's Balm. Also used the matching splash for proraso but forgot to include in picture.
Simpson classic 1 is a great little brush.
Titanium Timeless .68 OC tonight and it continues to impress.
Used perma sharp blade today, again this is an old throwback and it could very well be my favourite blade I've used in the timeless so far, very close between this and the Wizamet Super Iridium.
This 3D Printed razor is my version of the Ever-Ready Streamline. Ok, it's not even close to an E-R Streamline but it is my best attempt at making one out of plastic. I don't have a Streamline in my collection yet, so this will do for now. The razor is on the aggressive side, so a good lather is a must for me. If it's a stick, I usually face lather but this time I rubbed the stick on the bottom of the bowl and it worked out great. Three passes and this little piece of plastic rewards me with another awesome shave.
