Welcome to the SOTD and a wonderful first post here, marioira.
A fine selection of products if I may say so.
Just got home from a week away, and what a lovely post, Rune. Hope your daughter is having a fun day. Is she having a party at home? In the UK, most parents don't even go there....they book another place!!!!
Thanks David, she sure did (I don't understand where they get all the energy from...)
It's starting to get more common to book a place here as well, but we're still having the parties at home.

MWF heaven this morning, I see.
I thought about it but it leaves my skin a little too oily afterwards for these hotter days. Maybe I should wish the weather to take a turn for the worse!

Fantastic indeed, Emanuel! And La Toja...
Provence Sante Green Tea - Edwin Jagger Georgian-style badger - Bull Mastiff (SC NEW) - Med Prep - Pre de Provence AS Balm - Annick Goutal Eau du Sud edt
Love that EJ brush, Matt.
I had the Georgian handled DE for a while but the balance wasn't quite there for me.Tabac and Floid Blue.....never tried that combo, Johnny. Interesting one.
This holiday Monday morning in Barcelona, Semogue 830 and Ach.Brito Lavender cream; Edwin Jagger DE89 Head with a Russian Super Iridium blade from my friend Milo, in his fifth (and last) use; old Floid aftershave; I thought were a good complement to the today's star-shave.
And the star-shave. My old "U1 12/15" of Raphael, his first job, which only made 28 units.
After release these last days the "U2 12/15" and "Godzilla 15/15", I'm back to the first handle.
The razor was behaving like with U2 (since they are equal in dimension), performing better than it does with its Barley handle. More stable, more finisher, but without losing the smoothness of this head geometry associated with the great Russian blade. A clean, perfect and smooth cut. No surprises, no shocks, predictive, reliable.
I can certify that this handle has much improved the final result. The dimensions and proportions are good. It handles very well. The weight is correct and well distributed. You know that I shave in the shower in the tub with running water and wet hands. The grip is phenomenal. The feel is smooth, without burrs, without ribs, but very good grip. No slips with a wet hand or soap dripping fingers.
And the good news for Badger&Blade fellows: My friend Rafael told me that in the coming weeks will produce some handles for you. There will be few lucky guys who can enjoy them with pleasure.
A spectacular pic you have here....full of colour and vibrancy!
Konstantinos, framed to perfection!

You've thrown me today, Rune
Don't usually expect to see your posts at this time of day. Magnificent one it is too! I was beginning to become disillusioned about W&B blades as I have 2 and couldn't get a decent shave from either of them. Taken them back, and back, and back to the hones, and finally.......!!!!
Lovely looking Friodur, Mike, and an excellent pic too!
A month on and that 1800 hasn't changed a bit, Till!Cold Water Splash
Semogue 1800
Gillette President
Personna Meds Blue
TFS Bergamotto Neroli
Cold Water Rinse

Best shave I have had in a while. The Personna Meds are incredible, as is the Bergamotto Neroli. The menthol in the balm is a fantastic addition.
Seriously though, a really great SOTD pic, my friend
