My S.O.T.D today consisted of......
Prep Hot Wash.
Blackland Shaving Towel.
Brush Zenith Copper Boar.
Soap Stirling Black Ice.
Razor Occam's Enoch.
Blade Feather Pro (2).
Aftershave Stirling Black Ice splash.

Today's shave was with the newly acquired Occam's Enoch, the head attachment was something I had not come across before.
After a little fiddling I finally got everything in place and a throughly delightful shave it was.
I will enjoy getting to know this razor and it's a great quirky addition to my den.

a solid 8.5/10 shave.

I will now leave you all to enjoy your night.

  • Razor : Blacklands Blackbird SB SS Satin.
  • Blade : Voskhod PTFE (1).
  • Brush : Yaqi Mocha Synthetic.
  • Soap : Phoenix AA Atomic Bay Rum.
  • Aftershave : Cella Original Splash.
  • Razor Weight : 94 grams.
Hi all,
Another brilliant shave today with the blackbird nothing more I can say about this razor except it lives up to all the hype maybe not for everyone but efficient close shaving razors are my thing.
In my opinion, it matches up very well with the Voskhod blade I know it’s not everyone’s favorite blade. I think it’s right up there for sharpness and smoothness.
One pass WTG/AGT done no touch ups.

This is my first time using a Phoenix AA soap or of there products for that matter.
It gave a fantastic strong lather with a very pleasing bay rum scent.
Finished off well with Cella original aftershave.

Cheers.
