Van der Hagen TTO razor (old stock)
Ming shi blade
Van der Hagen deluxe badger brush
The Real Shaving Company professional formula shaving cream
Jade East aftershave

Shower prep with Axe 3 in 1 wash

This has been in my drop bag since I did my last hospital stay. I figured tonight was a good day to bring it out. It is considerably more aggressive than the new stock model with the etched head.

The shave cream builds a very good lather. The only down side is its very earthy scent. It's like stocking your face in a bag of potting soil. It was a two pass shave. The razor is too aggressive for more. I used no pressure and still got some irritation. I slathered on the Jade East. The high alcohol content lit me up.

Hello everyone,

I like to venture out from time to time, like shaving with this sample I found by chance in a plastic jar with no indication on it but a wonderful scent...

A first-generation of Mystic Water Soap... Good shave at the end but a laborious episode ...



Have a nice day!

Aleppo soap- Shave pre wash
Omega 1126 boar
Williams Mug soap
Schick Super 11
Schick Super 11 Ultrex cart ( 1 )
Williams Aqua Velva A/S Lotion

Cannot think when I last used this Old School soap, takes a bit of work to get a rich lather which dissipates quite quickly. Fitted new cartridge today, and have to say that it was an extremely nice Shave and the quality of finish quite superb. Still miffed that EBay would not
let me acquire more of the Ultrex carts from the USA.

Soap • Stirling Barbershop
Brush • Yaqi Purple Haze Mew Brown
Razor • Claymore Evolution
Blade • Kai Protouch MG
Post • Paul Smith Men Aftershave



These Kai MG guarded blades really are sublime in the Claymore Evolution.
Stirling Barbershop was a gift from Iain, @Digimonkey (Play-Doh scented shave soap!!) It works as well as any othe Stirling soap I've used.
Finished with Paul Smith Men Aftershave- summery Vetiver, and very hydrating.

Enjoy the coming Bank Holiday weekend everyone.

The Lupo performed flawlessly today, shaves like these are why i just cannot seem to reduce the razor collection. I really don't think i have a poor shaver in the DEN.
I am going to have to get ruthless and start moving razors along as its always a headache picking which gets used next.
Enjoy your day all.
