Brush and soap:
Vulfix 404 Grosvenor mixed Badger and Boar Bristle and TFS Anniversary Italian Fern:
So nice boating in the TFS Anniversary Italian Fern with a nuance of a moist forest air. I have been a fan of it for years, starting in 2014. The Vulfix 404 Grosvenor mixed Badger and Boar Bristle loads the soap easily and in my Polish bowl I easily stir a nice fat scented foam. No smell bomb, but a nicely worn mossy fougere. TFS foam is definitely good shaving foam.
Blade and razor:
The Voskhod for the 3rd time used.
Greased with that nice foam the Voskhod runs like a sun through the beard. In the Above The Tie S1 the Voskhod mows the whole forest bare and smooth in 3 rounds. Excellent result. Nice blade that Voskhod.
Result: BBS.
Finally: some alum to see how effective the result is and can say healthy prick. Then the Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Tütün to refresh and sanitize. Moisturize with the Weleda Aftershave Balsam and another fern from the Loris E-003 Acqua Di Gio for the next few hours to smell good. This way it can be done again.

2 Easy passes with the Nichiri frameback. Not completely BBS, but a nice comfortable shave.
I more and more appreciate the Wickham Shamrock Tweed shaving soap, and it goes well with the Denim AS.

Pre-Shave: Treufitt & Hill gel

Shaving Soap/cream: Floris Gentleman
Shaving Brush: Shavemac 28 mm. Fan Silvertip Badger 2 bander

DE-Razor: Mühle Rocca
DE-Blade: Gillette: Astra groen

Even with an Astra green knife, the Rocca is doing wonderfully well.

Sometimes it's good to wait a while before buying shaving gear. Because until now the Tatara Nidochi was at the top of the wish list, there is now almost no doubt that the Rocca has taken this place.

Gibbs Reglable / Wizamet SI Rubberset 400 / Manchurian Fan Arko Prep​ A bit of self made stuff in todays SOTD With only two original parts left, I'm not sure if it can still be called a Gibbs. The Rubberset Ferrule I notch blades in batches and I've used up my supply of Wizamets SI notched ones so its the first time that I have actually used a completely non-modified blade. Keep up the great shaves Gents...
