Not the best shave. I had some problem getting good lather with the yaqi. I recently used the plisson, muhle stf and black fibre. These have less backbone. They are easier to lather.

The böker OC is a rebranded fatip. Normally a combination with a voskhod or rapira platinum lux is considered good. The Ladas was a bit rough. I will try the blade in the Matador

Rarely if ever, you find a sotd by me. Partly because I shave once every 5 or so days, partly because I can't be bothered. The shave itself is not why I'm in this hobby.
However:
Simpson schizophrenic Duke
Martin de Candre Original
Repaired formerly broken Merkur 37
Shark (2)
Tunney
First time since the start of the Covid thingy that I actually had a three-pass shave.

First pass with the Ladas. It still felt rough so it isn't the razor. It was the blade. I replaced it with a personna crystal. Then all was fine.
