01 to 07 July
The end of a wonderful shaving week. I spent the last seven days working my way through a M7DS of Titan ACRO T.H-70 straight razors finished and maintained on diamond pasted balsa.
I am looking forward to next week when I will be again introducing some variety into my razor selection.

Shark Week Day 1
SOTD Sunday 7 July
The Daily Shave.
An opportunity to join the participation shave Shark Week
Shark Super Stainless blade single wrapper. This was my second use on this blade.
Very comfortable shave, no nicks or irritation.
I did have several minor weepers the first use. A DFS was the reward of a light touch.
Proraso Pre-Shave – not impressed, I always use Pears soap and a strong advocate of Pre-Shave.
I felt no additional slickness, I used all the sample of my face, then reverted to the Pears for my head shave.
Brut, Love the scent and a great skin tonic.

Where did you buy the Brut post shave balm.
I haven’t seen it here, I love the Brut splash & aftershave
HSOTD
Pre-shave:- Hot shower
Brush:- Grizzly Bay w/ Fanchurian knot
Soap: PAA - Doppleganger (Yellow)
Razor: Karve - Overlander
Blade: Gillette - 7 O’clock (yellow)
Post: Lucky Tiger - Tonic
Moisturiser: Neutrogena - Hydroboost
Had a mail call this week - lucky enough to receive 4 tubs of PAA soaps. Never used PAA before but a friend of mine recommended them. Ordered them off Oz Barber and they arrived within a few days.
Very thick, very heavy scent - nothing subtle. I really like it… it smells like Gin & Lime on a hot summers day.
Very impressed with the tallow based - produced a thick dense lather comparable to a marshmallow
Anyway - in a hotel again this week with work. So Razorock will get another spin!

I purchased the Brut post shave balm from a Foodland store in North Adelaide a number of years ago. I always keep an eye out for it but have yet to see it anywhere else.
