@Balin go easy on the tiger blades and you should be fine!
 
I ended up skipping shaving on Thursday and had an early morning shave today so I am late posting!!

The only thing I tried from the box was the R41. Its a great razor. I am going to try it again tomorrow morning, but I am looking forward to trying a few of the soaps and brushes! @Luc I am going to pack up a few of the Bonanza blade for you to try with you blade trials and this will be one of them!!

Thanks, Andrew, I don't think I have that one on the list.
 
Today's shave! All new to me stuff except for the blade and aftershave. I really liked the Booster after shave the last time I had the box so I had to give it a go again this time!

I meant to ask, what is the protocol for the tubs of soap? Is it ok if I load my brush from the tub and rinse/wipe the soap off when I send them on, or should I scoop some out?

My opinion is that it would be best practice to cut or scoop out what you need and use that. For example, that's what I did when I took a piece of the RazoRock Gold shave stick. I prefer shaving creams (vs shaving soaps) when it comes to used products. However, if I really want to use a used shaving soap, that's what I would do.

@rockviper, I believe it's a knack yes.
 
I missed a post but am still enjoying the box!

For today's shave I tried the Chiseled Face soap and the GEM Feather Weight.

Its a really nice soap and the GEM is a great little shaver. I am going to use the GEM again tomorrow. Its really quite mild but does a great job for ATG. Hmm, I may need to find a razor to trade for this one unless @Luc you are looking to try this razor?

Cheers!

I got moves like Jagger
@Balin Not everything needs to be a one-for-one swap. The box could probably benefit from being a less less fully packed than it is. That's the problem with us Canadians and travelling boxes; we tend to contribute more than we take.

Forgot to mention the Reuzel, I dig that scent. Not one I could do everyday, but it's great when I do use it.

Ok, I think I get it now! I'll do my part to declutter it for @Luc ! 😆

It is one of the longer lasting aftershave scents that I have. My wife finds it a little strong at first but likes it after it mellows.

@Balin, no worries, I put the Featherweight GEM razor in the box. I have a bunch of other razors that I can put in there.
 
I have been a bit remiss in posting my shaves here!

I have settled in to a few favourites! Ghost Town Barber for Halloween!! The R41 is a really nice razor and this Yaqi Silksmoke is fun brush to bowl lather with. The Mrs. likes Mountain Man by Stirling too!
