ARKO August

I am really taking to my shaves off this Adaee #12000 Cnat. This morning I had one of my most comfortable shaves ever. The Gold Dollar W59 is a favourite SR of mine to shave with, mainly because it demands total concentration.

I am not quite ready to start finishing all of my SRs on this Cnat, but it is getting tempting.

Pre-shave: Hot flannel, Pears soap
Brush: CaYuen "Copper Ore" 30mm DScosmetic G7
Soap: Valobra + 2 drops rose EO 3%
Razor: Blackland Sabre
Blade: Personna GEM Stainless
Post-shave: Shower, Thayer's witch hazel w/- cucumber, homebrew moisturiser, La Roche-Posay Anthelios SPF50+, Oxford & Cambridge cologne
COTD: Rante Kapua Torajah, Sulawesi

Still giving the new knot a workout. It's interesting, with so many knots being designed to emulate the action of natural bristles, these guys appear to have attempted something different, to go beyond what's even possible with a natural. It's sort of like a Tuxedo on steroids (but without the prickle), it lathers like a beast.

So hour saying my new G5C has already been surpassed?

Yaqi sure do come top with some great handle designs

Yaqi put out some great handles for the money for sure.

No, this knot doesn't surpass the G5C in any way. The AP knot is way more luxurious to use. But the G7 is an interesting knot to have in your den as well. I was really just curious to see what it was like, and I already had a suitable handle. I'm pretty sure that if you buy one already set in a handle, it will almost certainly be planted too deep.

Go on.

It's just like parachuting, there's nothing you can't learn as you go.....

The Yaqi G4 knot is quite good also when compared to the one Frank Shaving produce.

 

[Mark1966]

Go on.

I've jumped out of a plane - strapped to somebody who knew what they were doing.

I'll sharp every morning with a sharp blade - honed by somebody who knew what they were doing.

Mind you, if I was every to take up straights I'd have to look at what was on offer in the P&C Charity Auction [2-8 October] just in case there was something spectacular ...
