Greetings,


A new shave set up to start the weekend...Into my near third month of cold water wet shaves which have been a tonic for my mature mug.

This week will be a shave stick week and maiden shave with the Dorco ST 300 blade after the smooth comfortable shaves i had with the dorco prime platinum paired together with my merkur 39C with my shave last week.

Maiden shave verdict?...Like the prime platinum, the ST300 is a very mild forgiving, non-aggressive efficient blade which was another good match for the parker 55SL..I'll have to try them out with my other DE razors in future shaves.

Both the blades are not the sharpest blade choice which i fully understand will have a love/hate opinion with some people, what i personally really like about both blades they have a mild efficient smooth cutting edge which lets me buff over my tough jawline areas without causing any irritation to my skin..As always traditional wet shaving product opinions are very subjective....YMMV.

A enjoyable 3 pass +pick ups BBS with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a generous dollop of Nivea Men ~ Sensitive PSB.

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

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.:cool:
