Maggard V2 OC Head
Utopia Black Handle
Dorco ST-301 (1)
Stirling Boar, 24mm
Proraso Green Shaving Soap
Dickinson's Witch Hazel with Peppermint and Tea Tree oils added,
Proraso Green Aftershave Lotion
I purchased the Utopia razor off Amazon for $10 USD. The head was junk and was thrown away but the handle is worth the full amount .
The Maggard V2 OC is just a little on the mild side of medium for me but sometimes I like a mild shave.
Have a great shave everyone [emoji106]

Goooooooooood morning Cadre!* Hope you had a great weekend.
Wonderful shave this morning! Went back to @CBLSoap.com "Hello". Great scent and lather from the soap. Three passes for a DFS+ result and I finished with some of the matching after shave tonic and a spray of Eight & Bob EdP. Excellent!
Hope you have a wonderful day.

The old Floris cream made wonderful lather, as always. And the first shave with the Adamas was a delight. It gave me the same great auditory feedback as the Mokume-gane but was smoother - just as smooth, I think, as the LASSC BBS-1. Its balance in my hand was perfect, probably due to the skeleton base plate, and the grip was very stable but without the irritating roughness of the Damascus I had before. Definitely a keeper.

Soap The Goodfellas Smile Sea Citrus
Brush Yaqi 24mm Atlantis
Razor J.R. Torrey 5/8
Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel MitA + TGS Sea Citrus Splash with some Frost Drops.
Nice soap for the scent plus creamy and slick easy to lather qualities...
The shave with this razor was really enjoyable and better after going thru the full pasted balsa progression. Smooth, comfortable, and more efficient compared to last use. Managed a dfs/ccs result without any issues after 2.5passes. Enjoy the aftershaves.
