SOTD: Saturday 13 July - Friday 19 July 2024.

Razor = Blackland Blackbird Titanium
Blade = Silver Star Super Stainless.
Brush = Boti 30mm SHD
Soap = PAA Fresco with matching splash
Balm = ES Fragrance Free.

It’s been a while since iv used PAA soaps and i really like them.
I know a lot of our american friends are not keen due to their selling practices but that was long before i got in to shaving.
This one for the guys that don’t know is a clone of Old Spice Fresh that was out in the 80’s
Personally i can’t remember it but it was here although not for to long as far as i can gather.
The Scent is fresh & Clean quite similar to a nice barbershop scent.
This razor is borrowed from paul @Blademonkey and what a superb razor.
Sometimes i think its ever so slightly aggressive for me then the next time i use it its a dream,
i guess blade is everything.
i also need to mention this wonderful brush i received as a freebie from @Paul L.
Thanks Paul i like it a lot,
It doesn’t have store lather but at 30mm i love it.
All in all a straight 10/10 shave
Until Next Time
Stay Safe.

First shave with a Wilkinson Classic for a long time and it’s just as I remember - excellent shave. For a razor (and blade) that are cheap as chips, this is great value.
Great razor & blade duo. Those Silver star blades are excellent, my personal favourite from the Lord camp.
