Meißner Tremonia - Himalayan Heights
Mulcuto - Schrägschnitt, Geschmacksmuster Griff, Pollopas baseplate, metal cap (s)
Treet Carbon Steel
Tunney

Treet doesn't cut more than one shave, then it starts tugging and pulling. Tried three blades now, that was it.

So we can rightly talk about the -Treet Carbon Black beauty - pearls for the boars. :kaputtlachen1

Brush and soap:
Plisson Fibre and Mama Bear Ye Olde Barbershoppe:
I've used the 3P La Crema Prodigio preshave twice now and it has something, but does it do something? A bit cooling, but apart from that I don't do much. With the Plisson Fibre the nice fat foam of the Mama Bear Ye Olde Barbershoppe can easily be applied over the 3P. It doesn't beat to death, so that's okay.
Blade and razor:
Used the Super-Max Blue Daimond for the 2nd time. The Super-Max Blue Daimond does it again, but let's see how it goes on, because after 2 turns it already feels tougher and less " schnittig " The light Phoenix Alpha Ecliptic Slant Ox Blod with its specific head shape forces the shaving angle with which the Super-Max Blue Daimond has to do it. Well that goes well, but especially, because the whole thing glides so nicely on the foam of MB. Result BBS.
Finally: fresh and spicy finish with Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Kolonya Klasik Limon, Naturlife Krem Vazelin Argan Ve Aloevera Özlü Loris E-162 and Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb.
So and now locked up celebrating the liberation????????

This time one with the Tatara Nodachi SB + Feather blade (6x)

Because the Mr. Hyde in me (aka The King) was bringing this up in a phone call a few days ago. He wanted my opinion on this razor and I give it to him but wanted to visit it again myself to be sure.

Our calls are certainly different from most peoples, it consists of 3 parts:
First one is something like a Medical symposium. We both go over all the different things that are wrong with us and for me it's always a kind of relief when I come to the conclusion that although I'm falling apart there are always people who are far worse off then me :rolleyes:

Second part is about all the shaving stuff Mr. Hyde didn't buy but ended up at his place anyway :lol
And like todays shave it makes me wonder .... I mean when you hear that man talk about soaps, so much knowledge and then once in a while I start doubting myself, could I be wrong after all? should I try this menthol based soap sample that has been lying around for a while in a dark corner? Is it me who is at fault? And so I try and the same conclusion as all the other times I simply Hate this stuff :eek:

And the third part of the conversation is about all the macho stuff we used to do when we where younger, after which we go back to lay down and take a nap :rolleyes:

I have a rather strange shaving ritual these days with all that lockdown stuff going on but I better not tell as even The King himself said I'm cuckoo :uhoh
