Razor: Rigarazor
Hone: Tam O’ Shanter
Brush: Paladin SE Saint George
Soap: Martin de Candre Rose (my all time favorite)
Aftershave: Stirling Piacenza

A great edge was finished on my Tam and it felt keen and comfy on my face.

My favorite soap lathered up with a Paladin is always a treat and makes for excellent lather.

Great steel, soap, and brush made for a relaxing shave with great results. 10/10.

Tuesday’s shave…..

Gillette USA pre-war Tech…..I’m loving this one. All I need really.
KAI blade on shave #4
Omega boar brush
D.R. Harris sandalwood soap and cologne…..this cologne is my favourite sandalwood scent.
Yesterday’s shave with this razor was really good and this morning’s stubble wasn’t much. Did 1 pass ATG and some extra on my neck and got a DFS with little effort on my part. I have a couple of pre war Techs but this one stands out. It’s in great condition and I get virtually zero irritation from it. Suits my face perfectly. A definite grail razor

Razor: Parker Variant
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue, 4th use
Brush: Simpson Duke 3
Bowl: Timeless Razors Blue Bowl Bowl
Preshave: Executive Shaving Pre Shave Oil Oil
Soap: Maggard Tobacco And Leather Croap
Aftershave: Maggard Tobacco And Leather Aftershave
Balm: Stirling Havaford Balm

Good shave a few small nicks that I attest to my handling of the variant this morning. First try with the pre shave. I didn’t really notice any different other than another step in my process.
If I could just have a mister of HaverFord with me at all times to keep refreshing the scent it would be excellent.

Comments	This was the fifth consecutive day I used my Feather AS-D2 razor with a Feather blade. The blade continues to feel fresh and sharp. Today’s brush is a Paladin El Dorado, one of my favorite brushes. I tend to prefer larger brushes and this one is a perfect size. I am using the Haslinger soap for the 9th consecutive day. Today’s shave was perfect. Have a wonderful day.
