Well after a long awaited time I have finally had the opportunity to use the renowned "Streamline."
It is a recent purchase but I had to wait for a new bottle of Barbicide before I could use it.
It has been my Holy Grail and I have to thank
@Blademonkey for sending me on this path.
Using the lightest of feather touches I am truly amazed by this razor.
She is so, so audible and removes whiskers for fun. The weight, balance and build is far superior to anything I have had reviewed in the Gem range.
YMMV but she really is an aggressive little madam and needs to be treated like your first date. A little cwtch (cuddle in English
) and perhaps a peck on the cheek before you put her to bed.
All I can say is WOW!.
Two passes is all I wanted this evening because this lady will take a layer of your epidermis without asking you.
BBS and DFS around the neck area I am truly amazed by her.
I used the best Hardware that I own this evening to give this razor the credit she deserves.
Big shout out to
@Blackmass for his advice and sourcing this brush. Big shout out for
@Bandito for supplying it. Big shout out to
@wayne mattison who gifted me this soap, (Yes guys for free) and finally a big shout out for
@Olie29 who I bought the S.V Bowl from.
I know this has become more of an essay than the SOTD but I simply wanted to try and explain that I have found my "Holy Grail!"
Good night and God Bless all.
