Shave of the Day Thread - 2023

[klinker]

I really like the look of the Rocnel Sailor and I assume the amount of times it features in your shaves you really like too.

It is a one of my favorite DEs. A very well made razor, I love the weight and feel of it.

Pre-shave:- Shower
Brush:- Vie-Long 14025 Mix Badger and Horse Hair
Soap:- GEO.F.Trumper's - Spanish Leather
Razor:- Gillette Aristocrat #15
Blade:- Aussie Spoiler (5)
Str8:- Solingen 5/8 Best Quality Silver Steel

Was in a rush yesterday so whipped out a new tub of GFT and quick single pass DFS+ with the Aristocrat and Aussie Spoiler was feeling my smooth cheeks for most of the morning. The one thing I miss from shaving in the evenings because you wake up to stubble
Tonight used the same cream and brush but took my time with an enjoyable 2 x WTG straight shave

I'm not a big fan of synthetics and the original Yaqi Timberwolf wasn't to my liking, so I drilled it out and replaced it with the AP Titanium after seeing yours. It is better than the Yaqi, but still cannot compare to my badger, boar and horsehair knots. YMMV.

My YMMV agrees.
