Pre - Pears Transparent Original
Brush - Vintage Vulfix service #3 1950's - 22mm Boti Boar Fan
Soap - Signature Soap Valentia
Razor - Blackland Sabre V2
Blade - GEM PTFE S/S
Post - Cold water Rinse
Balm - Tonyschin's Lemon - Lime - Grapefruit E45 / Argan oil Balm
A/S - Signature Soap Valentia

I set the V2 with the #1 plate as i fitted a new GEM, this calms the 1st shave down nicely.
I maybe have 1 more shave in the Valentia.
All good.
Enjoy your day all.

This is a mild razor on the high setting, but still provides a comfortable and compelling result.

 

[p.b]

This is an aggressive razor! A very close shave which was just on the border of comfortable. I think I’ll use this razor to test my MdC lather making skills when I crack open the tub soon.

Humpday, July Twenty-Second's Shave Of The Day was good...

that's a sample of Stirling's Arance Mandarini... only wielded the 1959 Fatboy loaded with Treet Platinum WTG(5) a little XTG(5) clean-up... stumbled into the shower with PP Easy Peasy bath soap... we're smoof and sniffing good...

Have a Good Day & Good SOTDs ATGSers...
