Tuesday
Prep: September rain shower
Van der Sanden razor - Silvertip badger in bubinga wood - L'Occitane CADE cream - cold water splash - L'Oreal balm - Lorenzo Villoresi's Piper Nigrum EdT

Nice razor Magnus!
I bet it shaves like a dream.

This setup would make for a very good travel kit. The shave oil makes your face feel very soft and smooth, I wiped away three days growth with no problem.
I would miss the brush & lathering up part too much to continue using this all the time.


Merkur Slant | King of shaves | Bay Rum Lime

Was away over the past week experiencing Outward Bound.
Part of the course was to be dropped in the bush Solo for 2 nights. Minimal food, build a shelter.
No distractions, not allowed to leave your small campsite - I had about 3m x 10m at the top of a steep track.

Thought it was the perfect opportunity to try shaving without a mirror.
Created a sink with a plastic bag, a couple of sticks and some rocks.

Not a bad shave all things considered.

Prep: Hot shower – followed by Vitos pre-post-shave cream
SS: Proraso
Brush: Semogue 830 Boar Hair
Razor: Merkur 34C HD w/ Merkur “Super Platinum Stainless” blade
Toner: Thayers Original” Witch Hazel w/ Aloe Vera
ASB: Anherb “Natural” Aftershave Conditioner
EDC: Creed “Himalaya”

Doubly hurt me in the soul as it is one of my favorite razors was spotless, with an edge is amazing and that in addition I acquired a good friend and colleague, so it hurt me even more

Sorry for you dear friend... I could feel your pain myself... Hope it will have a good end and she can be fixed somehow...

Result: Not bad considering I've been into this hobby for less than 6 months. The TI 6/8 half hollow grind takes a wicked sharp edge. Knock on wood, still haven't nicked myself yet.

* Welcome to the forum!

International cutlery co. razor. Touched up on my 12k and was the smoothest blade I have ever used. 3 pass shave, not one bit of irritation and super smooth.
