The Wolf was calling my name today so whacked in a new Spoiler blade and off I went. Got a very good lather from the badger 🦡 brush and the Soap Commander soap. It’s a solid performer for sure. Ended with some Proraso green since the scent doesn’t linger too long.

did it howl or bark?

Razor: RazoRock Stealth Slant V1
Blade: Voskhod (1)
Brush: Tony Forsyth Matilda Prototype Rhodium knots 2-band Silvertip
Lather: Mystic Water Jeff's Lavender
Post: APR post-shave serum

Recently a question about the best RazoRock razor appeared...well I haven't tried them all, but a fair few and the V1 Stealth Slant is still by far my favourite - it gives such a close and smooth shave.

And the Rhodium knot continues to spoil my face with its luxurious touch, a wonderful shave to end the week.

I hope you all have a fantastic Friday (y)
 
That first one is one angry motherfbadger! He’d see the bottom of all of @SpeedyPC soap tubs in no time flat!
I’m so glad, I’ve been using synthetic brushes for almost over 12 months now, not one single badger brushes hasn’t been used during my shaves, for another words, not a single angry bitch badger screaming in my face.

Unfortunately just a honey coloured set with super badger brush. Imagine how much a brush from one of those lilbuggers would cost. A couple of appendages :)

Pre: Warm Shower

Blade: Feather

Nice smooth and super comfortable shave on setting 6, not quite bbs but very close. Lathering the badger has improved, very slick and consistent. Looking forward to using the matilda!!

setting 6 on the slim and black 73 are quite different with the 73 being the more aggressive. Both razors are fantastic and worthy of their spot in the den.

Pre-shave: Shower
Brush: Tony Forsyth 26mm Best Badger
Soap/Cream: DG Milksteak- Sellout
Razor: Karve CB (B-SB)
Blade: Gillette 7O'Clock Black (1)
Post-shave: Cold Water Splash, alum, TSW After Balm

Trimmed the beard and head with an ________ trimmer before shower, then a one pass shave. I also took the Head blade for it's maiden voyage, all in all really good shaves.

 
OMG!!!! Did you used the R41 with your badass angry cat.
If she brings another living cockroach in the middle of the night and tries to feed it to me, she may well end up like that.
Here kitty, kitty, kitty, daddy want to practice str8 shaving.
