At one point I felt that the Tech was just too mild and inefficient for my tough beard But I've found with a more "aggressive" blade like a Nacet or Feather, and paying close attention to the angle, it gives a really DFS.

Blade: Gillette Nacet (2)
Brush: Simpson Trafalgar T3
Bowl: Pereira

Still in. Almost three months out of an Arko stick and it just won’t go away! I can’t complain about the lather or shaves, but I’m looking forward to a change!

Day 8, 25.8% complete

Preshave: Hot washcloth
Soap: Saponificio Varesino Cubebe
Brush: Yaqi 24mm synthetic cashmere
Razor: GC.84 SB, Al Handle, Astra SP #4
Bowl: Turkish copper
Post-shave: Nivea Balm

Back to Cubebe, and compared with yesterday, it definitely has a better post-shave than Nivea cream. So it should, of course!

Excellent shave, the blade is still fine.

Almost three months out of an Arko stick and it just won’t go away! I can’t complain about the lather or shaves, but I’m looking forward to a change

Arko's performance in the shave was very good, but I got a dry/irritated post-shave out of it.

Just add Tabac in the mix and you get the best of both worlds. In my view that is.

In!

I'm catching up with my Thursday evening shave, a lovely and close two pass shave with the Karve CB with SB-E baseplate. Very enjoyable.

Cheers!
