My Tuesday shave goes back to the Klar soap for the 161st time but with my UK Aristocrat razor loaded with a Personna Lab blade for the third shave. The soap is one you don't see used very often on B&B. The razor–blade combo works great. The brush made enough lather and felt nice on the face. A BBS shave. Have a good day, folks.
