Wow ...... nine shave's a from a Wilki. That's impressive! :thumbsup:
I usually just bin most DE blades after 3 shaves, I picked up some NOS Wilkinson Sword blades and I decided if they were good then I would see how far they go as I only have a limited supply. Well I have been really impressed with the blade, it is the first NOS one I have tried, I don't get on with the current German made blades. If they all last this long they are as good value as most other blades I have.

Williams Wednesday SOTD
The creamy slickness created by the Omega and Williams Mug soap really assisted the mild Grand Shave King to give me a very good BBS with no irritation. The Self Lubricating feature of the razor is not needed using a soap that creates such slick lather. Finished with Nivea Cool Kick ASB and Aqua Velva Musk for a great start of the day. Have a blessed day gentlemen.

Razor: ikon El Jefe
Razor blade: Kai pro guard

Bowl: Little Wren Pottery
Soap: Czech & Speake No88

The El Jefe is another razor on loan from James AKA @Acer89 thank you, again.

I was warned about the issues with the head and blade alignment. It took a couple of times to get the head to line up but no major dramas, very much like the shave.

Three passes and a little buffing left me with a very, very good close shave. Not a hint of irritation, no weepers, nothing.

James did say I would be pleasantly surprised and he was right.

Cheers
