Most Feather Artist Club style blades. The Schick Proline P-30 blades also work since I've used them in the Hawk. And I bet the Feather Soft Guard blades will also work. The Feather Pro Light blades won't work. You can get the Schick Proline P-30 blades from Connaught Shaving (UK) or even cheaper straight from Rakuten (Japan). The Feather and Kai blades can be bought from RazorBladesClub (but I bet you can also find them on Rakuten). You can get the Hawk in 4 different colours from Connaught Shaving.

Thanks. Any customs when you received the razor? ;-)

No, because Brexit hasn’t happened yet and the UK is still part of Europe. So no customs duties possible.
Oh right, it doesn't stop in customs! Now I must get one. What about shaving 7 days of growth?

Haven’t used it on 7 days of growth so far, but I didn’t have any real problems with 5 or 6 days of growth. It isn’t as efficient as my R41, but I also haven’t used it yet with a Feather Pro Super blade which should increase efficiency/aggressiveness.

All I know is that there’s no blade chatter anymore because of the stiffer blade and ever since I used it, I haven’t had the desire anymore to grab my DE safety razors. The blades are a bit more expensive but they last longer. I’ve had 9 shaves with my first Schick blade so far and I feel like I can get at least another shave out of it.

Two face and a head shave down with Bare Siero. Definitely a better lather and post shave than DG Milksteak. I have not tried Mohammad’s Nai formula yet but Siero is the best of the bunch so far having used most every homemade soap cooker from 2011 to present. Great base and just incredible what these guys are creating these days.

Still waiting for my unscented one to arrive from Maggards.


I believe you’re postie is really enjoying seeing your package trapped on the conveyor belt, otherwise you may have to cough up with extra postage cost, if, you wanted the package delivered to your home. Tough bloody luck Mr Baby Pork Chop :D

I think you're right you know. But they can above their extra postage cost where the sun doesn't shine!
 
Fougère Mania isn't exactly flying off the shelves at Maggards; even with Black Friday discounts. Proof I suspect, if it were needed, that pricing is OTT
Very true..not only this but I have heard the scent is rather polarising. I have never tried it so I can'y comment but I have plenty of Vitos red and MWF to keep me going at the moment.

I just had to do the sniff test first and when I did back on the shelf it went. WK was the first high end soap I tried and the first rabbit hole. 2 out 6 worked but in general wk scents just don’t do it for me and I sold two, gave away 2 and kept two. Not sure I will be replacing when done. The new formula does sound very attractive but ..... I also have 3 soaps that are unscented so good there for a bit.

I do wonder if they’ve caught a cold on their pricing as well. Its a $5 / 20% increase over their previous formula which might seem like gouging...
