Away for a couple of days where I used the restored FI tech with a Treet platinum blade. Tabac stick with tallow sample grafted onto it. RJ travel brush. Decent shaves.

Thursday
Not used this soap in a while, it was possibly the first purchase that wasn't sandalwood when I switched to DE. Used the first badger brush I bought, but stuck with Brit FB Tech still loaded with the Wizamet. The EJ 19mm best badger is decent enough for it's size, but a bit of a 'shedder'!

Had a really nice shave, however longevity of the splash not more than a few hours.

SOTD: 08/12/2022

Razor: Executive Shaving Claymore Evolution
Blade: Feather Pro, 8th use
Brush: Yaqi Napoli
Bowl: 3D Printed Bowl
Preshave: PAA Cube Unscented Soap
Soap: A&E Shaving Butter - Cashmere Velvet Puck

A little more time and care and a slightly closer shave today with the Claymore. The scent on this soap and balm last all day and just smells great, such a shame it seems discontinued.
 
Decemboar 8 2022

Pre - Palmolive Sea Minerals
Brush - Omega 10075
Soap - Derby Stick
Razor - Personna Star head on a Yaqi Handle
Blade - Gillette Winner Stainless (3)
Post - Witch Hazel
AS - Chat d'Or Jumper

A great lather today with the Derby shave stick, and an enjoyable shave. Oddly enough the Winner Stainless blade was it's best today, I think with the teflon coating wearing through it's sharper and smoother than for the first two shaves.
I finished the shave with a few splashes of the Jumper aftershave which I largely neglect. It's a Boss Bottled clone, and I often find a bit sickly sweet but it's a very moisturising splash, really felt great on the skin at the end of the shave.
