Shave off today, Fridays SOTD
Russian Start Razor 1.18
Titanium Timeless Scalloped .95
2 Med Prep blades (2)
Catie's Bubbles - La Terre Verte
26mm Duro synthetic Graydog Flaming Box Elder.
Another Great Shave , but anytime the Ti Timeless Scalloped is involved it's going to be
For Me :)
The Russian Start Razor 1.18 did well and was very smooth.
Again I will hold off on posting my thoughts on the Russian Start Razor until I get a few more Shaves in.
The Soap was excellent and reminded me on how much I really like it and need to use it more often :)
The Brush has one of my favorite synthetic knots and is always a pleasure to use.

Greetings,

A new shave set up to start the weekend...Another uber/superlather week also after the superb shave i had the Parker 55SL / Gillette Winner Blade duo recently i'll be using the same fantastic indian made duo for all my SOTDs this week,and carrying on using the gillette winner blade for the next month or beyond....

Starting with the OSP grapefruit & menthol cream which is another item in my shaving den i've infrequently used and forgot what a wonderful great wake up call to your face sensors it gives, mixed togther with the VDH soap created a excellent superlather only a small amount is required to get a great lather in no time with a very nice citrusy scent and plenty of menthol goodness,and a excellent post shave feeling to my face.

The Parker 55SL was a joy to shave with mowing through my stubble with effortless ease,resulting in another very enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups bbs shave with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a few generous dollop of Creightons ~ Sensitive PSB.

My face is feeling super smooth and smelling devine.;)

Enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.:cool:
