Scent on the Ari is a little less than I had hoped for but it's an older badge ...
Still the lather and post shave feel is very good, so with a little drop of ice, metholated glycerine/grapeseed oil, I got a nice shave.
Enjoy your festivities, enjoy your family or enjoy a silent night!'

For me the Diamondback is smoother, but less efficient then the 17-4. I don't know which to prefer.

Have a nice day!

Tabac Orignal AS, isana ultrasensitive balsem

As a final hone I used an Ozuku for this razor. The final hone for the IC Vincent (a comparable french frameback) was a thuringian bout. Both razors are sharp, but the salles is sharper and I have to be more careful.

Hi Friends,

Merry Christmas to everyone

Here is my Christmas Shave, 26.12.2019

Pre-Shave: Coconut Oil
Razor: Occam's Razor on Plate 2
Blade: Feather Pro Guard
Soap: Saponificio Varesino 70th Anniversary
Brush: Nightdiver's Olivewood Beehive
Aftershave: Saponificio Varesino 70th Anniversary (Sample)

The Occam's Razor has been gifted to me from my Mom and the Soap was a gift of my wife.

So, what could be a better combo?! :smile:smile:smile

A great Christmas Shave in 3 wonderful gentle passes. I will hold it short, the soap smells outstanding, performed like a champ (as it is typical for SV Soaps) and the Aftershave is Top notch too.

Have a fantastic time, enjoy your shaves and take care.
