Yaqi R1605-S Tuxedo,
Elly's Svart Vikingaskip,
Gillette New Made in England,
Kai Stainless Steel 4th x,
Elly's Svart Vikingaskip,
Weleda Aftershave Balsam .
Brush and soap:
Yaqi R1605-S Tuxedo and Elly's Svart Vikingaskip:
Elly's Svart Vikingaskip is the most delicious soap from this soap maker. With the Yaqi R1605-S Tuxedo, it makes nice, firm lather and the scent is pleasant as well. Excellent stuff.
Blade and razor:
Used the Kai Stainless Steel for the 4th time.
The Kai Stainless Steel is still as good as new in this 4th shave, it will last for a while. The Gillette New Made in England is a great razor to use the Kai Stainless Steel in. Nicely effective, but not overly combo. Nice and smooth.
Result: BBS.
Finally: matching Elly's Svart Vikingaskip aftershave. This bottle has such a large opening that I have to be very careful that not too much comes out.The smell is pleasant, but there is also a very strong alcohol smell, which does evaporate, but still too sharp. Some Weleda Aftershave Balsam and we are good to go until tomorrow.

After I came back from ice skating I shaved. It doesn't get cold enough nowadays to go ice skating each winter, but when it gets cold a frenzy takes hold of the country. Because it will be above zero monday again it isn't worthwile to grow a beard to go for such an ice beard.

J&T® Marble Wood APShaveCo SynBad,
Barrister and Man Adagio,
Gillette Tech,
Kai Stainless Steel 5th x,
Rebul Dark Spice,
Cien Men Hydro Care,
Myrsol "Don Miguel 1919" After Shave.
Brush and soap:
J&T® Marble Wood APShaveCo SynBad and Barrister and Man Adagio:
Beautifully soft yet firm brush, the J&T® Marble Wood APShaveCo. SynBad. Great for lathering up harder soaps. Well, the Barrister and Man Adagio is not really hard, but it does lather up very nicely. The scent of that soap is funny, a bit floral on one side, but in the base some bay rum and leathery, soft and yet masculine so to say. Nice lather.
Blade and razor:
Used the Kai Stainless Steel for the 5th time.
The Kai Stainless Steel keeps going. Barely noticeable rundown in the cut, but it will continue for now. Comfortable combo, the Gillette Tech with the Kai Stainless Steel, which shaves nice and smooth. 3 rounds are no punishment with the nice foam and this razor.
Result: BBS.
Finally: some spicy fresh and classic finished with spicy Rebul Dark Spice, fresh Cien Men Hydro Care and classic Myrsol "Don Miguel 1919" After Shave.
Satisfied.
