SOTD:
Had a really quick shave on Sunday night for church, and what a shave it was! As usual the Arko performed amazingly, especially given how little time i had. What an amazing soap for when you need to shave quickly and still have amazing results.

The aristocrat also performed perfectly, such an easy razor to use, and super mild too, at least compared to the lion and fatip piccolo.

Its been a while since ive used the old spice whitewater, and its a really great sent, im thinking of adding menthol to mine, i just need to find a place that stocks menthol first.

Beautiful shave from the feather, definitely my favourite blade now.

Razor: gillette aristocrat barber-pole handle (1948)
Blade: feather hi-stainless (27)
Soap: Arko shave stick
Brush: dischem synthetic
Aftershave old spice whitewater

I really enjoy the Lea Classic tallow puck soap. It is a little on the thirsty side, but once properly hydrated, for me it stands shoulder to shoulder with other classics like MWF and Tabac.
Three passes for a BBS finish. I was enjoying the shave so much that I got a little enthusiastic with my neck strokes, resulting in a touch of razor burn. A timely reminder that whilst the vintage Personna blade is buttery smooth, it is also very sharp.
