Very smooth and close shave in 2 passes and why I love this style of razor, but, the lather of the soap is becoming a let down in the mornings. Never really noticed this before now but havent been using it exclusively it either.

Thursday's Theatrics:

Merkur 34HD, Lab Blue
Hand-carved Ash Boar
GFT Coconut Soap
Brut AS
Jamaican Black Castor Oil

Several days of growth to remove and boy, was I ever relieved to shave it off! Felt great afterwards, helped by the excellent results. I must say that the GFT Coconut provided mountains of slick and lovely smelling, protective lather. I know it gets a bad rep so I must have an old formulation as this is grand soap.

Fair shave with this DE and last use of this blade.
Took a lot of touch up's to get as close shave a shave as my last SE shave.
Lovely menthol hit from the Ingram
Great finish with the 500 g for 59p unscented moisturiser. If that's not a bargain then...........
