Still, an okay shave from the Lupo, nothing special.

Yesterday I got in three nice soaps. However, the emptying program this morning was more important. Something about discipline.

Brush and soap:
Mühle Silvertip Fibre® 21mm and Proraso Wood and Spice:
Mühle Silvertip Fibre® 21mm with Proraso Wood and Spice was this morning's turn. That big tube seems to be infinite. The quality of the cream remains good, the smell is nice, but with a slight chemical undertone. Too bad, because without that it could be one of my top products.
Blade and razor:
The Trig Silver Edge Stainless Steel Blade for the 6th x used.
The Trig Silver Edge Stainless Steel Blade is at its end. Shaves well but that's all there is to it. 6x is really enough for this one. In the Fatip Piccolo Special Edition (SB) it's easy to shave safely, but the Trig Silver Edge Stainless Steel Blade looks more in place in an OC, but the cut is now too poor for that, so piggy bank.
Result: DFS.
Finally: season with Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Tütün, Proraso Wood and Spice ASB and Proraso Wood and Spice cologne.
This afternoon we will visit a shaving friend in Utrecht, talk about soaps, blades and things like that and of course enjoy our coffee.

First shave with this blade. For me at the first use it feels different from the Treet Dura Sharp yellow. That needs a further investigation.
