Good Day Gents!

Much has been written about the Ever-Ready Streamline. It is one of the most expensive single edge razors in the market. And I had often wondered why. Well, I finally managed to get one for reasonable money with the help of a friend from England (thank you, Paul!), including box, stropper, and strop. Very nice. Sooo... I took it on a test drive. And I am beginning to understand why it receives so much praise. It really is a very nice razor.

Also in this picture, my current favourite line-up:

• Meißner Tremonia Gentle Menthol preshave soap. Degreases, and softens the whiskers. A preshave that actually works.
• 26mm Thäter two band fan.
• Meißner Tremonia Gentle Menthol shaving soap. Same quality as the rest of their soaps. Perfect.
• Meißner Tremonia Gentle Menthol aftershave splash.
• Meißner Tremonia Gentle Menthol aftershave balm. This is the best aftershave balm I have tried so far. Skin care is as good as that of Baume.be (yes, that good), but the added menthol works extremely well, and the sublime, slightly floral scent is simply perfect.

So... Different strokes and all that, but for me, this is perfection. One day, there will be an even better set-up, but right now, this is the best one I know.
