Greetings,

Turkish Thursday.

Another early morning cold water wet shave.

Last use of the silver star super stainless blade has performed with efficient smoothness throughout the week, and feels as though i could get another 2 shaves from it.


Like all my other chinese super-speed clones the weishi/yintal 9306-i, has gave me consistantly dfs/near bbs comfortable irritation-free shaves with each outing..What more can i ask for.

Another very comfortable 3 pass + pick ups near BBS shave with errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a generous dollop of Arko ~ Cool ASB.

My face is feeling smooth & smelling divine.;)

Stay safe, and enjoy your Day ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

MITA is amazing, wonder how the glacial version is.
Nacet slowly becomes my favorite in my blade journey.
Pitralon was fine but i think there is better summer AS out there.
Beer was perfect for sitting in the sun.

Today the soap is from Phoenixshaving.com, Big Shave S’West. The soap is one of their CK-6 formula soaps – an excellent formula. The brush is a Graydog syn. The razor a Karve SS with a Polsivler Super Iridium blade. The aftershave was Thayers Rose Petal WH and Clubman. The fragrance was Yves Saint Laurent.
 
Thu 4th SOTD
Soap Colonel Conk Almond
Brush Yaqi 24mm Sagrada Familia
Razor Edwin Jagger DE89L
Blade Tiger Platinum 2nd
Post & Aftershave
Ice Water + Special Thayers
Hyaluronic Acid + Aqua Velva Musk
Lather not as thick but still very slick as with most of CC soaps. Shave with same razor and blade as part of continuous testing. It was still as sharpish, smooth and comfortable. 3 multiple passes + buffing. No weepers nor irritation. Between BBS to DFS.
Rating 9.5/10
