SOTD: Saturday 15th - Friday 21th December 2018.

Monday 17th December



Pears Glycerine Soap
Vitos Preshave Cream
Stirling Spice Soap
Yaqi 24mm Timberwolf Synthetic Brush
Weishi TTO razor in Gunmetal with a Gillette 7 O'Clock Sharpedge blade
Witch Hazel
Palmer's CB Moisturiser for Men
Old Spice Original AS

Many years ago when Weishi appeared on the scene....I joined the rush to find out what it was all about. I used it a few times and promptly relegated it to the back of the drawer as I could not get a decent shave. With the news that the new Wilkinson Sword TTO is probably manufactured by Weishi I decided to have another go to see how they compare.
The Weishi is a challenging razor to use. The first pass is easy. With longer stubble it is easy to find the 'sweet spot'. With subsequent passes it is more difficult to maintain the correct angle and I am assuming my technique has improved as I had a DFS+ with 3 passes. It was a lovely smooth and close shave even though the razor (for me) is milder than the Wilkinson. I am on Nights tonight so I will see how the shave holds out.....but is feeling good at the moment:)

RazoRock Syn. 24mm
Speick Active soap
Supply SE-V1 / V2 No3 plate
Personna S/S [ 6 ]
Pitralon Original A/S Lotion

After nearly a week of great Shaves with the Supply, I am wondering if this is because I injected the Personna Blade rather than hand loading as I did when using Schick Prolines. Will have to try Injecting other blades to see how they perform.Maybe Injected blades sit better in the Razor.
Todays Shave was just as good as the first, smooth /comfortable with a close all round finish. The Supply is definitely up there with the E2 And PAL injectomatic and it will get a lot more use in the future.
