    Great shave today. The Magna got a 50/50 treatment on the Pegasus II prior to the shave as my whole rotation got a 16K shapton touch up prior to the move, so this will be my usual for the next few months. What a nice uber combination. Always one of my favorites. the violet and lavender reminds me of spring. followed it off with sea buckhorn ASB and BVLGARI and i was off unpacking today. Gonna tackle the garage and workshop tues... yay!

    Monday

    Edwin Jagger DE89 - Gillette Superthin blade - Palmolive soap in a ramekin - Vie Long Hoger - Alum

    That razor and that blade are a winning combo, for me. BBS in 2 passes and no sting from the alum.
    Regards
    Nic

    Prep: Hot Shower
    Razor: The Swede
    Brush: VDH Boar
    Soap: Speick Shavestick
    AS: Aloe Vera Gel
    Finish: Agua Lavanda Puig

    Great shave, this razor was a complete PITA to get an initial edge on but once there, it just seems to hold a great edge forever and effortlessly deliver consistently great shaves. No PT tonight as Monday is my day off.

    Great combo Paul. I love the Violet/Lavender combo or Violet/Rose etc combos. Can't go wrong. Well done. Love the blade too.

    PS: Congrats on the move buddy

    That's Swedish blades for ya, LOOOOL. The rewards more than offset the pain and suffering
