The PAA Slant has 3 charastics that make it a great razor
1. it's an open comb
2. it's a slant
3. it's a Fasan copy

Of course YMMV

How do you like that brush so far?


Schick Krona razor
Derby Premium blade (#1)
OSP Neroli shave soap
Maggard 22mm black synthetic brush
Monsieur Musk AS & EdT combo

Decent shave, however the Derby Premium while a good blade, falls short of a top tier one.

Hi @Bogeyman , I'm undecided to be honest. I like it for sure, it's a good size & comfortable to use but it's soft, very soft. There's nothing wrong with that, just I prefer my brushes a bit scratchier. I've got another razorock synth but haven't used it yet. I'll use it this week & see how it compares. Short answer though, it's a good brush...

Mine has if anything gotten softer and splays more after repeated usage, albeit I only use it for certain soaps. Too much "scritch" gives me a bit of irritation. The regular Plissoft type synthetic should be perfect for your beard then.

Greetings,

my SOTD'S this week have been a pleasurable experience..all the razors i've chose for them have worked brilliantly..the razor of the week though, has been my Parker 94R..i've instantly found my angle with her..

Today's shave i've carried on with my Parker 24C, which performed with effortless efficiency..resulting in a 3 pass + pick ups silky smooth shave with no errors to report...

Out of all my Parker razors i struggled to find the right angle was my 24C at first,but
i found that if i used a more steeper shaving angle, it performs superbly,and gives a sublime shave.

The maca root cream, is something i haven't used in a while,and i've forgot how much of a slick protective lather
you get, from such a little amount in no time,creating anough lather and more for the shave,nice scent also, i know that some people have a love/hate opinion of the scent, but i like it.


Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of 47ll,which works with the Nivea Men Creme very nicely.

My face is feeling super smooth and smelling devine.

Enjoy your day,ladies & gentlemen.
