I have taken Mrs TC away for her birthday this week (21 again for the 39th time ), a canny view from the room, the hotel is spot on and the Portuguese hospitality awaits. I will try to keep on top of the SOTD's next week.
A well deserved cracker from the Blutt today.
Enjoy your evening all.

Hot shower prep with Axe 3 in 1 wash

I had a close comfortable two pass shave. It's good to use a blade that can stand up to my beard for more than one shave.

My Shave today consisted of...
Prep Hot shower.
Brush Goodfellas Smile Wild hog.
Soap Wholly Kaw Project leather.
Razors Leaf & OneBlade Genesis.
Blade Modified Gem (1).
Post shave Wholly Kaw Project leather splash.

I finally got a pair of Nibblers and Modified a Gem blade to fit my Genesis razor without shimming.
A lovely shave even though it's the blades first outing and should getting buttery smooth in the next few shaves.
The Project leather is a scent I enjoy a lot lately, It has real staying power scent wise.

Have a cracking night everyone until next time.

Oneblade Just released their own blades. postage cost to europe is keeping me from trying them.

Oneblade Just released their own blades. postage cost to europe is keeping me from trying them.

The postage to the UK is outrages and like you it's places them out way of my price range.
My nibblers cost £11 and took 3 mins to modify the Gem blade. I will stick with gems once my supply of standard FHS-10 blades run out unless they get a UK stockist.

I was warned the v2 could get damaged trying the mod. for me the durability of the feathers is underwelming at 2 shaves. especially given the price comparative to DE blades from which i at least get 3 shaves.

maybe some European vendors will stock up on them new blades we'll see.
