Brilliant shave this afternoon with the Aylsworth Kopparkant witch was no less than I expected from
this accomplished artisan.
The razor its self shares the same blade gap and exposure with the Apex SS pro with the plus plate.
The Kopparkant also has the + on the base plate.
In my opinion, comparing the two razors I think the Apex SS has a slight Edge in efficiency and closeness of shave over
the Kopparkant.
(Which may be my imagination as the razor head specs are the same.)
It still gave me a two pass BBS shave no nicks no irritation.
The Yaqi Psychedelie sample lathed up well with good cushioning and post shave feel.
Finished of very nicely with the Rasozero splash.
1 pass WTG/ATG done no nicks no worries.
Cheers.

So how close is I, Rich Moose to the Moos? Enquiring minds etc...
To my nose I, Rich Moose, it's smell just like Johnson baby powder mixed with brut aftershave. I'm not joking.So how close is I, Rich Moose to the Moos? Enquiring minds etc...
It doesn't smell like the real vintage Sir Irisch Moos tallow shave stick, because, the stick smells deeper and darker, and I, Rich Moose smells lighter and a bit brighter.

That just shows how much I have not been paying attention lately. I had not heard of the AD Horizon. What do you think of it?

Brilliant picture by the way...
I think I might like the MdC Absinthe. Love the scent, so long as I don't have to drink it...

The razor went on sale a few days ago, this one is from a pass around in Spain that I organise, I only used it once in the #3 setting and I liked it, the geometry is based on the Faulx.That just shows how much I have not been paying attention lately. I had not heard of the AD Horizon. What do you think of it?
