I know that I had mentioned earlier that I would be going on a run of Aristocrats but the Merkur 34G was calling my name. What a beautiful razor and when loaded up with a Kai, a formidable shaving machine. Some believe the 34 to be mild and somewhat it is but with a sharp blade ala Kai, Polsilver, Nacet etc, it mows down the beard with zero irritation. Today’s soap was Cella followed up with the matching balm. A lovely three pass BBS shave was achieved , no muss and no fuss. Weekend is almost upon us. Take care and happy shaves.

Razor: RR Wunderbar Slant. Worked great. Just solid, sharp, smooth, etc. Everything I need.
Blade: Gillette Blue Platinum. second shave with this blade. I can tell it doesn't have the juice it did on the first use.
Soap: Stubble Buster Grunge. Scent based on Jean Paul Gautier - Le Male. Outstanding. great shave. Shaves like $25, costs $9. Very Oily soap, easy loading. Yogurty lather. Same maker as Chiseled Face. Available at Groomatorium, (along with lots of great stuff)
Aftershave: Stubble Buster Coastal. Smells aquatic. Kind of burns, but not in an allergic way. I think they liquified aspirin in there. Face feels great. I smell great. $7. seriously. buy some stubble buster stuff.

Why I love stubble Buster = Instead of the same rehashed cloned stuff (Hermes/Creed/Guerlain/Davidoff/etc), They cloned random 90's stuff like Joop, le Male, Very Sexy, Chrome, Fahrenheit, D&G, CK Obsessed, Boss #1, Curve, etc.

Stubble Buster RULES.
