January 4, 2025 Saturday shave

Razor: Lambda Athena, bronze
Blade: Dorco Prime (1)
Soap: Barrister and Mann Le Grand Chypre
Brush: Yaqi 24mm Silvertip badger
Bowl: Captain's Choice copper
Aftershave: Captain's Choice Nor'easter

I took a step up in razor aggression today, going from an Overlander to the Athena. The results were a smooth and close shave. The Athena doesn't mess around! Three passes (WTG, XTG, ATG) with a new Dorco Prime blade wiped out two days whiskers very efficiently.

I used a badger brush for the first time in a month or more and enjoyed it more than before.

All in all, an excellent shave.

SV Saturday


Hello friends

Cloudy Saturday. Inspired by BADGERary 2025, I chose a brush that I rarely use, but whenever I use it I come to the conclusion that I should use more, Yaqi Moka Express (Two Band Badger/26mm). It was 20 dollars very well spent. SV Morado is increasingly climbing my shelf and with FloΓ―d The Genuine it makes a divine combination. For my 24-hour beard, I chose Greencult 2.0 II with a brand new Brazilian Wilkinson Sword.

With us, Nancy Wilson and the George Shearing Quintet.

Rating: 10


Have a wonderful weekend and great shaves!
