And nothing better than a matching Proraso Sandalwood soap, accompanied by the Omega 48 piglet brooch knot 29.

This is what happens if we mount a Muhle handle of the R101, that is, the same as the R41 but central part in black. To a ROCKWELL 2-4 plate.

The Simpson Chubby 2 in Manchurian badger is a true luxury brush and it knows it. A very good shave this morning, close and comfortable, with a great razor and the accompanying aroma of sandalwood.

I've been having similar problems working with inept self righteous steel inspectors who think they have the right to be in my face!! Let me say, i'm not an arrogant person, but i won't suffer fools, i told my boss,' i don't mind them doing their job, but i have to do mine too'..Get the idiots sorted out, or i'll walk off the job! plain and simple .!!.. 'My boss had a few choice words with them shall we say,' ,and hey presto! 'i can now do my job, without been distracted by over-zealous text- book theory idiots.

A bit out of practice with the shavette so i really took my time.
I had a DFS result from 2 passes WTG and a mixed pass and could have stopped there, however, i needed the practice so completed a buffing pass all ways.
I am still struggling to find a comfortable hand hold on this razor?
End result was a DFS+ finish, was the final pass worth it? I did get some indication off the Alum block due to my poor technique.
Everything else performed marvelously.
A lovely face massage with the Barts Balm calming everything down, only to be lit up again by the Vintage 4711 EDC,
Feeling and smelling pretty good.
Stay Safe and enjoy your day All.

Razor - Ball End Tech
Blade - Indian Gillette Wilkinson Sword (5)
Soap - MWF
Brush - Yaqi Plissoft
Post - Witch Hazel
AS - Benjamin's Bay Rum w/Pimento

I rarely ever load soap from a puck/tub and I rarely ever seem to load enough soap when I do, and even though I had enough soap for a lather with a nice shine and slickness there wasn't quite enough cushion as I like, but it didn't negatively impact the shave, a good solid one.

I'm liking the Indian GWS, nice smooth middle of the road blade I think if I was recommending someone to come to DE shave it'd be one of the blades I'd recommend.

Have a good day chaps.
