You keep putting those asterisks and footnotes. How come the Aristocrat No. 15 is with a ball end handle?

The Gillette 7 O’clock Sterling razor and the Tiger Platinum were not a match made in Heaven. WTG and ATG weren’t bad, but XTG fought me hard. All the software was fabulous though.

Tiger Week Shave 6.

It was a fun week! I learned that this is a 2 shave blade for me and I finished up my tuck! Unfortunately I don't think I will be replacing it, lol.

Thanks @ivan_101 for hosting and I'll be seeing you guys over at the 7 O'clock thread tomorrow!

Tiger Week

Arko: 0
Aventus: 13
Other: 7

Razor: Lupo 95 SB
Blade: Tiger Stainless(2)
Brush: Semogue 1305 Boar
Soap: RR Emperor
A/S: Old Spice
Post Shave: Nivea Sensitive Shave Balm, Nivea Hyaluron Creme

Tonight for AAA another Emperor shave, this time lathered with a Semogue boar that I haven't used in quite a while, the 1305. Although my preference is for synthetic brushes nowadays I have a new appreciation for boars when it comes to 3017ing a soap. My final shave of Tiger Week was with the second use Stainless before I start 7 O'clock week tomorrow.
The Lupo was good with the Tiger Stainless and gave a BBS, bit it felt a little rough, a fact bourne out by the sting as I applied the Old Spice.

I would like to thank @ivan_101 for this year's Tiger week and look forward to the next.
