Pre-Op - Grooming Dept
Razor - Blackland, Tradere, G&F handle
Blade - Gillette, Minora
Soap - B&M, Famine
Brush - EverGoose, AP Titanium knot
Moisturiser - Nivea
Balm - B&M, Famine
The Giesen & Forsthoff handle is the same weight of 69g as the standard Tardere handle but shorter at 80mm and thicker. And for me, this was better.
Didn't feel so clumsy.
B&M Famine performed well with the AP Titanium knot and I like
the scent.

Razor: Shield Avenger
Blade: Kai Captain Mild Blue, 9th use
Brush: Highlander Copper Colonel Plissoft Knot
Bowl: 3D Printed Bowl
Preshave: Bart’s Balms Lochnagar Oil
Soap: Seaforth! Sea Spiced Lime Puck
Balm: Seaforth! Spice Lime Aftershave Toner Lotion
Fragrance: Seaforth! Sea Spiced Lime Eau de Toilette
This soap and scent is just what the doctor ordered on a hot day like this! The blade seems a little duff as I normally get to 9 plus uses with ease but this was probably over due a change.
Enjoy the day guys!

Col Conk lime shaving soap
Col Conk lime aftershave
The social and meteorological autumn have arrived but the autumnal equinox is still weeks away. With no clear indication I went with lime Wednesday just because it felt right.
I shook out my badger nearly dry and loaded as much as it would carry. The first pass I didn't add any water but the second pass I added a few drops. I changed a few angles on the second pass and got very close to BBS with no irritation. Lime aftershave to finish. A small word of warning. Once you start a bottle of Col Conk aftershave you have to be careful or you might dispense half a bottle. The flow is that generous.

Vestige on proof. What a beautiful razor. Since I found the earlier razors of Atelier Durdan rather mild, I started immediately with the ++ plate.
First impression is very good.
