Best shave with the Nodachi so far! This razor just wants a Feather!
A fellow forum user on a Dutch forum is looking for a Nodachi, but by this shave, I'm not ready to sell.

Fromm Special #72
Scrupleworks Vegetable Tanned Horsehide .. 40/60
Bloc Osma
Thayer's Witch Hazel .. Rose
Pinaud's Lilac Vegetal Splash

The Fromm razor belonged to my Father-in-law (RIP) so it made the shave special. Honed on a fairly new vintage coticule, an SRD Extra Extra. A pretty stone with very fine salmon colored streaks... Nice shave...

Brush and soap:
Plisson Fibre and Razor Master Santtu (Sandalwood):
Nice woody weather this morning. The not too firm Plisson Fibre is fine with the not too hard Razor Master soaps like this Santtu (Sandalwood). Makes a nice lather. Pretty moist yet firm stuff.
Blade and razor:
The Feather stainless Platinium for the 8th x used.
The Feather stainless Platinium shows its quality and just does its job. Cutting hair, even though this is the 8th x, it still feels good. I am amazed how positive I am about this blade. In the past a lot of cuts and stuff, but this is going fine. The combination Mulcuto Schrägschnitt (metal) and Feather stainless Platinium is a good one. Easy and intuitive shaving.
Result: BBS.
Finally: with the Proraso Con Olio di Sandalo AS, Naturlife Krem Vazelin Argan Ve Aloevera Özlü and the Loris So Oud a nice finish with worn solid wood tones. Good Saturday morning feeling.

Nice and fresh soap and aftershave, scent could have been stronger, but hoping it lingers awhile since it is a aftershave perfume.

Have a nice Sunday!
