Friday 25th September...

#3 outing for the Astra Blue blade and it's doing really well. It seems to sit perfectly on the amount of sharpness I need for my growth. Think this is the best blade pairing I've had for the Jagger. Soap was Hampshire Lanolin - rapidly becoming another favourite. I might even finish this!

Enjoy your Friday...

Another cracker with another Vintage Gillette. A very smooth BBS finish from 3 full passes.
The HWF #1 is now finished, i got 102 shaves from the small cake, i am sure i have another 3 or 4 somewhere in the den.
The Vintage Perma-sharp has been banked after 5 shaves it was still cutting however it was dropping off slightly towards the end of the shave.
Enjoy your day all.
