Monday iii November, 2014

Prep: Korres Wheat Facial Soap
Pre: TOBS Herbal Pre-Shave Gel
Brush: Rubberset 400-3 with TGN High Mountain White knot
Soap: Figaro P.160
Razor: iKon Slant
Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium #1
Post: Acqua di Parma Collezione Barbiere ASB

Result: Started with a Durham DuBarry and a Personna Dog Dresser blade but it was horrible, really tuggy and I couldn't make it work at all. Had to repair to the Shave stash and pull out the iKon and pop in a Polsilver SI. After that, all was splendid!

Pip, pip

Mastro Livi Grifetto​

I love this razor! The more I use it, the better it is. I am sure Grifetto will soon become the worth successor of the New Grind, although this one is made from stainless steel and blanks are personally made by Mastro Livi. Nothing in common with the New Grind razor, they however share the very same quality in shaving and comfort. Velvety, smooth and keen, you can tell it is a Mastro Livi!​

Brush: Vie-Long horse/badger mix
Razor 1: Kropp 6/8
Razor 2: EJ89
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
Strop: Invisible edge standard plus
Post: Professor Blighty's Hyperion post shave tonic.

Nice 2 wtg pass with my Kropp finishing with 1 ATG pass with my EJ89. Smooth smooth shave getting better on the curves with my kropp. I really need to get my other straight razor honed so that I will still have a razor when the kropp needs touching up. Loving the Profs products never get any sting off the tonic and the soap is very slick indeed.
