Day 20, shave 16 - head and throat.

Fatboy dialed back to 7 from 9, Personna 74 (16) Mitchell's Wool Fat.

Really a great shave. Less blade feel at 7, but still plenty aggressive. And, Mitchell's provides to me some of the best lather ever.
 
SOTD:

Fatboy with a fresh Voskhod blade set on 6
TTFFC Spring Fern Sample
SOC 2-band badger

3-pass shave. First time use of the Voskod blade . . . . pretty average I would say. Got a couple of weepers, but it wasn't the blades fault.

Shave #2
Getting the hang of the Fatboy now.
Used a Rapira blade first use.
Maca root shave cream, probably my favourite lather for slickness.
Omega 49 brush. (My only brush) I really need to invest in something a bit smaller.
Fatboy on setting 4 for the 3 passes.
Finished with loreal sensitive shave balm and then Terres de Hermes aftershave.


Can we get the details on that finish? It looks great. Is it DeltaEcho? How many shaves on it? How's it been holding up?
