Pre-Shave: Prep cream
Shaving Soap: De Vergulde Hand Extra Fresh :weihnachten1

After Shave: Pinaud Whisky Woods

Shaving Brush: Yagi 26 mm. Tuxedo

DE-Razor: Paradigm Diamondback
DE- Blade: Gillette 70’Clock Super Platinum Indian Black 3x


In the Christmas season, shaving with a quilty pleasure is of course allowed, so the Vergulde Hand Extra fresh is allowed to make its appearance today.

The smell of this soap appeals to me very much and with a few drops of glycerine added to the lather is also the care in order.

And I did enjoy it and with its low price and less care this is of course the "SCROOGE" among the shaving soaps so also applicable in this Advent season. :yes_nicken

Brush and soap:
M Ceramic APShaveCo flat top synthesizer and Mühle Sanddorn:
The M Ceramic APShaveCo flat top synthesized knocked into the M Shave bowl a delicious fruity foam from the Mühle Sanddorn. That soap has such a pleasant scent! The rest is also true, so top start of the day.
Blade and razor:
The Gillette Rubie® Platinum Plus for the 2nd time used.
The Gillette Rubie® Platinum Plus is simply good. A blade you can count on and shouldn't be missing. In the Mühle R41 (2013) the combination with the Gillette Rubie® Platinum Plus is a precision instrument to cut the beard and head hairs absolutely smooth. After all, shaving is no more and no less. The rest we do by ourselves with scents and habits, but that's just the hobby.
Result: BBS.
Finally: to complete the hobby start of the day Butterfly Water sprayed, Weleda Aftershave Balsam smeared and Pinaud-Clubman After shave lotion Original once again as an accompanist for the rest of the day, delicious.
 
@The King I am curious to read your findings after a few shaves with the Diamondback in comparison to the 17-4..


I want to understand the Diamond Back completely and then I want to take the 17-4 to make a final judgement.
This afternoon I also discussed this with Snuff and indicated that I would like to do at least 10 shaves with the Diamondback.

To say something, it seems to me that the 17-4 is the uppermost party at the moment, but everything can still change.
 
Given that I usually feel like a one-armed bandit, my shoulder injury is going pretty well today. So shave again .. an old acquaintance concerns soap a soap that I haven't used for a while .. Dutshi ... great soap for a small price. shave was nice and got a good look again ..;)

I had lent a razor and it came back yesterday, accompanied with the Sottozero!
The Sottozero lathered up to a nice foam, TFS always does, it has a fresh scent.
Thanks, Hans!
