[Norman Gunston]

Prep: Valobra Glycerlanolina soap, Myrsol Emulsion
Brush: M&F Brad Sears L7 Tigris Finest Badger
Soap: Eufros TSR LE 2018
Razor: Pils
Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium (1)
Post: CRSW Alcohol-Free American Barbershop Moisturising Aftershave
Scent: Chanel Pour Monsieur

First shave with the Tigris. She certainly lives up to her name - she tore into the Eufros soap savagely, hence a relatively short load time. Thankfully, she also retracted her claws when face-lathering, with soft tips that painted lather nicely. Very firm backbone and densely packed - a very impressive first outing.

Three passes for an extremely comfortable DFS.

WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angles for my beard)

Proraso White Tub today. 20 seconds to load the Plisson #12 Badger brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Vintage Gillette Platinum-Plus still in the Gillette Slim. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Stirling Barbershop aftershave.

Fine looking arrayment, Sammy. That Franken-double open comb is one heck of a razor. How did it handle? Also, how is that Maggard synthetic?
