Brush and soap:
Luyixian Synth-24x68 and Elly's Svart Vikingaskip:
The Luyixian Synth-24x68 is my simplest and cheapest synth, but a fine brush. This morning's soap comes again from the east, Elly's Svart Vikingaskip, from Belarus. The smell of this soap is not excitingly delicious, based on Drakkar Noir, but because I do not know the original, I cannot say whether it did. In any case it is fresh, somewhat spicy and also a foresty smell. Oh yes the foam is really good. All in all a nice usable soap, but not a topper.
Blade and razor:
Used the Treet Dura Sharp for the 2nd time.
This Treet Dura Sharp is pleasant to use. In the Timeless Solid Bar scalloped 0.68 the trick is to put the Treet Dura Sharp on the skin without pressure. The weight of the razor is more than sufficient. 3 rounds smooth.
Result: BBS.
Finally: Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Tütün, Seinz. After Shave Balsam and Elly's Svart Vikingaskip AS. Nicely scented ready for the day.

Just for you guys, I know how much you like De Vergulde Hand and Menthol.....

Certainly with the new Wizamet, its an excellent shaver.

Perhaps a small disappointment, but in the Netherlands there are very few lovers of the Vergulde Hand. :eek:

And I am a great lover of menthol and unfortunately I have to conclude that this version has no menthol crystal in it. :eek::eek:

In other words, not very good twice. :eek::eek::eek::kaputtlachen1
