Greetings,

After my recent shaving den cleanout, i've now started to add items to my shave set-ups that i've hardly used since they where kindly passed on to me....That's the problem when you have too much shaving tools to use, you become complacent, and go for the same shaving items all the time.

The kanzy K100 performed wonderfully smooth ,paired up with the zorrik sp, which made the shave a pleasurable

experience, resulting in a 3 pass + pick ups comfortable sunday shave with no errors to report.

Finishing the shave off with a generous dollop of Nivea Men~ Sensitive Cooling Post Shave Balm.

My Face is feeling smooth & smelling devine.;)

Enjoy your sunday, ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

Sunday is a fougere day:

Pre: shower
machine: SSSeygus open comb 2016 + astra green
brush: FS mixed
soap: AP Reserve General Ledger
splash: Chatyllon Lux TSM Fougere
balm: AP Reserve General Ledger
EdP: AP Reserve Fougere Bourbon Rose

Sorry folks, no pic today

I have not used this brush for a long time and yes, there was a reason for that, but didn't remembered. Now I am tempted about starting up the chimney and dispose it...
Any way, the output is amazing, you cannot go wrong with these so good smelling products, even if each of them are quite different

I had barely heard of it, Chris. When it came up in a FB pass around I decided to give it a try. I had my second and last shave with it today. It gives a pleasant and irritation-free shave but I hate the awkwardness of the head and handle and especially the pivot. I used a single blade in the aggressive position today and my cheeks are smooth but i couldn't get a really close shave on my lower neck. I believe the market for this razor is the shaver who doesn't want to give up his cart but wants to use better blades. I'm totally happy with my horde of DEs and SEs so the Leaf Razor won't be joining my arsenal.
Thanks, Ron.
