Moon Soaps Amaretto Shaving Cream & DSC Professional w/Synbad Synthetic 26mm
Gillette Hybrid Tech w/Weber Stainless Handle & Permasharp (Vintage) Super Stainless
Coty Musk Aftershave
Cor! That was a super shave ...
Finally, I get to try the legendary British Made Permasharp Super Stainless, a now vintage blade that was made in Scotland much thanks to a pack (or two) sent to me by
@Mike Smart < Cheers, mate!
Sharp! Right up my street this blade - I like stainless without a lot of faff and this blade is just that. I made two passes because I was enjoying it so much and really enjoying using my Gillette Hybrid Tech. What a lovely razor when popped onto a heavier handle.
The shave itself put me immediately in mind of the now German Wilkinson Sword, but after a few more strokes it struck me that it was significantly sharper and I settled not on the Gillette Permasharp Super but on the Silver Star Super Stainless from Lord as the closest match amongst modern blades.
Again, smashing shave, that! Very much looking forward to tomorrow ...
