Really good quality soap! Nice scent, rich creamy and slick lather...can't ask for more...
Another shave with this soon be mine and elevated to the top razor was just outstanding. While still unable to get the efficiency results of DE, this time round in 3++passes managed a dfs/ccs/sas results. This razor's edge has noticeably improved after the 4th full-pasted balsa progression. Smoother, sharper, and ohhh soooo 🤫 (silent) No weepers nor irritation. Very enjoyable.

Comments
4th shave with the Wolfman/Wizamet combo. 95th shave with the Haslinger soap. I have perhaps one more month's use out of this soap. The brush today is my Paladin PK47 – my first Paladin that I won at the B&B Sue Auction. An excellent, BBS shave. Have a good weekend.

Razor: Yaqi 50mm Excalibur, MFG 2021> tame mid range, good daily driver, good entry point for AC blade razor. Head design is so small so care is needed in handling blades IMO. Enjoyable razor to use and it is carefree to wield around the face with a 50mm Kai Protouch blade.
Blade: Kai Protouch(5) excellent blade, Sharp & smooth with reasonable longevity. Hard to cut yourself for best protection.
Soap: Lavanda cream, nice very mild scent with great lather qualities.
Brush: Yaqi 24mm 2band badger, mountain lake, excellent lather generator, pillow soft tips, nice scrub + great lather painter.
Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups.
Post shave: Ach Brito Lavanda AS(lavender + woody nice scent) with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.
Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers = :a17: excellent shave with my Yaqi Excalibur with a Kai Protouch blade.
