A crisp Sunday morning trying out the Yaqi Beast head on my Windrose handle with a Spoiler blade. Big audio feedback, smooth and efficient. I'm impressed.

Soap: Pb Puck No:2
Brush: Semogue 610
Razor: Gillette Slim Aristocrat
Blade: Bolzano (1)
Post: Jojoba Oil
Interesting combo this morning. Good morning to use Puck No:2 as it's past it's BB Date but still produces a nice lather which was probably helped by the Alfredus Choice residual left in the bowl after I'd washed out the lather yesterday.
The Bolzano (compliments of @nsavage ) was a pleasant surprise. Performed very nicely in the aristocrat.:)
 
Tried a feather in the R41 this morning, certainly saw the efficiency of the blade but wasnt as comfortable a shave as the polisilvers. Had to tread with more caution and got some tiny nicks around the place.

How’s your face coming along, because, your mother still wanted a family photo taken. Don’t forget to smile this time at the camera and don’t be a shy little bastard.

DIY lemon myrtle oil
KarveD w/Polsilver
FS Manchurian Finest
DRHarris Sandalwood
DIY lemon myrtle oil/Anherb
​
The FS Manchurian is a lovely brush! It's not too dense so it has a really natural splay but with the scrub of a two band. Perfect for my tastes!!

The DRHarris Sandalwood soap scent is just a wonderful, albeit subtle. Still one of my top brands for shave soap.
