After 2/3 shaves with the sample I ordered the soap and splash ... fantastic shave and I don't know if it is the tallow base but the post shave is silky smooth.

Splash was great with a good degree of scent and finished off with the MDC Camomile which i still think is miles better than anything else I've used

Sunday shave, today it's going to be my all faithful Stick Schick marathon injector with a Twin blade still giving myself excellent shaves. I like the feel of the ball at the end combined with the longer handle that Schick seems to have incorporated the longer handles in the later models for what ever reason. Great shave is the bottom line!

Razor : Stick Schick injector L type theme series - MFG 1973
Blade : Schick Twin II injector (Japanese) (27)
Soap : Italian Barber Amici
Brush : Razorock Plissoft
Preshave : Brush wash the face with CerVe hand soap + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on beard area.
Post shave : Dickinson's witch hazel
Post shave : Italian barber Amici + Nivea balm.
Results :9.5/10 or CCS,DFS,BBS + not irritation + no weepers =

Have some great shaves!

Marvelous indeed...!!!!

Arko is really great...smell wonderful and so easy to lather on the face producing a thick & slick layer.
The OC turns out quite mild thus enjoyable. Blade was ok...sharp and smooth enough.
3+1pass no weepers but some alum feedback. BBS 9/10

WTG, ATG and XTG. Minor touch-up and buffing.

The Personna is an incredible razor that definitely runs with the big boys.

This is the first time I've used the new "Chubby" style brush from @Graydog . Needless to say, it is an awesome expression of the brush maker's art by a true artist. Thank you, Steve.
