Soap & Aftershave Lothur Dave
Brush Yaqi 24mm Silvertip
Razor Gillette Super Adjustable U-1
Blade Polsilver Stainless Vintage #2 vs Feather Stainless #3
Superb soap's lather qualities, brush, and splash...just awesome!
2nd blade challenges this time against the legendary Feather. So happened to have a 3rd used blade around. Both blades were smooth and very efficient in the razor at max 9 settings + a shim. I am amazed at how smooth the vintage polsilver is...the finish in 3 passes is bbs all over. Verdict...hmmm...perhaps a slight edge with the Polsilver!

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had pleasant evening.
New soap day with 345 Soap Co. "Den Of Thieves" soap and splash. This set is an homage to Tom Ford's "Rive D'Ambre", with a nice blast of citrus atop a bed of warm amber and light green notes. As with yesterday's set, I have never tried the frag it's based on so I can't comment on its accuracy. The scent is very light. Not sure if I got an older tub but even face lathering didn't seem to make the notes any more pronounced than directly off the soap. The real star here was the lather which was built with the new "Underground Pool" 26mm ST badger brush from Badlands Shaving. Superb slip and cushion with great post-shave face feel. Wonderful! Two passes (+touch-up) and I finished with the matching splash and a spray of Tom Ford "Tom Ford for Men" EdT.
Hope you have a great day.
