New soap Wednesday Officina Artigiana Najran. Great lather, super thick and rich. I just can’t put the scent into a classification but I sure like it. I think it I’d mild enough to be used year round.

Proraso pre-shave, Omega EVO, Timeless Ti .95 & .50 Slim, Tatra Platinum (3), Officina Artigiana Najran soap, Omega alum, Thayer’s Toner, HAGs Faceless balm. Excellent full three pass shave!

You can pick up these heavy handled 60's Techs in as new condition for next to nothing when they come in one of these travel sets, probably cheaper than a Tech on its own.
A crackin shave today, the brilliant Palmolive mixed in the heavyweight copper Captains Choice bowl with the Smog-Hog brush producing easily enough slick, nicely scented lather for my shave from a hazelnut sized "dollop", the vintage blade holding up well considering this is its 5th 2 pass shave outing.
KCG did not get anything wrong when making these fantastic little razors. i would love an exact copy in Stainless steel, the closest i have are the flawless Feather AS-D1 and WS-D2 versions, however, the handles do not give the same feel in the hand as the shorter Tech handle.
Enjoy your day all.
