RazoRock Wunderbar
Stirling Port Au Prince
Stirling Fan knot badger
Gillette 7 O'Clock Super Platinum blade
Stirling Mutton tallow line-up is so good in terms of performance that most of the time I don't really need any post-shave pampering.
Wunderbar is like a dream come true when considering a slant (for me), I don't think about any other slant after using it. It is deceptively smooth and ready to turn from efficient to bitey (in terms of irritation), in fact, it is my latest shave with Wunderbar that I've finally come off 100% irritation-free (no alcohol bite) even after an aftershave. I never knew there was so much room for improvement, yet here I am, having second thoughts about the accepted levels of technique and post-shave feel with my other razors.
I'll not be taking part in this month's GRUME, as I have some interesting things to work on - knotting the knots in handles and trying to source some good quality badger knots as well.
I've come to a stage where it is looking interesting to try to fit some knots in gorgeous-looking handles, and what better way to start than with some inexpensive synthetic knots and some SHD badger knots as well. It is going to take a month to get anything delivered to my address, till then various posts and videos will be my homework for preparation for this DIY journey.
