The Timeless is still a great razor which performs very well with a Rapira PL blade.

Brush and soap:
Semogue 1305 Boar Bristle Shaving Brush and Chiseled Face Trade Winds:
This morning was one of them, which had to be done quickly. The Semogue 1305 Boar Bristle Shaving Brush and Chiseled Face Trade Winds are perfect for that. Smooth foam with some earthy sea breeze, or do I smell waving fields of blowweed in the Irish Sea? I made a motorbike tour along that coast and that smell stays in your nose.
Blade and razor:
The Gillette-Wilkinson Sword Stainless Steel (India) for the 6th x used.
The Gillette-Wilkinson Sword Stainless Steel (India) did its job neatly, but that was it, so piggy bank. In the Gillette Fat Boy adjustable at 5 the skull and at 6 the face, made the combination with the Gillette-Wilkinson Sword Stainless Steel (India) easy to use, but no longer that flashy from the start. Tomorrow I'll do something completely different.
Result: BBS.
Finally: refreshing with the Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Tütün, restoration work with the Braukmann Sport Cream and for the surrounding area with me as centrepiece the Pinaud-Clubman Special Reserve.
Smooth and pleasant shave.

I had me there not so long ago the pre-shave of Rasozero Agrumella purchased. I wanted to use it for the 2nd time it was one hard dehydrated clog become.

With great difficulty with lots of water a little effective mass obtained I also got a nasty tingling at the application.
Most readers know that enough it is now in the trash can. :confused:

  • Polsilver Super Iridium (1)
  • DSC 30mm Tuxedo
  • Noble Otter - Monarch
2 rounds and a bit of weeding out some strays, the Personna blade just did not perform optimal in the GC, and what a change! Smooth and fast, no irritation whatsoever and only two rounds needed.
I love the brush, but i like the SHD in the J&T better, it is even softer.
The Monarch stays on top of the heap, no AS needed, this soap will take care of you for at least 12 hours :)

The menthol shaving soaps had been on the shelf for some time now and this omission was triggered today by the sight of a friendly sunset. :)

Take a look at the Faux Horse synthetic knot which is a bit better than the Tuxedo, Tuxedo is a bit springy in the hairs, Faux Horse doesn't have that.
 
Prep
J&T horse hair
Lea professional shaving cream
EG Gustafson frameback
Vdh alum
Pitralon origan, balea ultrasensitive balsem

Not the best shave. I honed the razor to substandard level. It lakked sharpness and smoothness.
