    Received another ebay razor in the mail yesterday, a puma 39 5/8 pour barbe très dure. The seller didn't describe it as shave ready. When I asked him whether he did any work on the blade, he simply told me that he found it at an antique shop, stropped it on a pasted strop, it passed the hanging hair test but that he didn't shave with it.

    Given my previous ebay experiences, my expectations were low. I had a hard time imagining that all an antique shop razor find would need is a pasted strop to be shave ready . True or not, boy was I pleasantly surprised! The razor only seems to have factory hone wear and it was genuinely shave ready!
    Here is my shave of the day:

    Todays stubble scrapings occurred with the following weapons...

    Cream : Palmolive green tube
    Brush : Men-U synthetic bristle
    Razor : Gillette Superspeed flare tip
    Blade : Derby
    Pre-shave : Hot water
    Post-shave : Cold water, alum block
    Balm : Nivea sensitive moisturiser
    Finish : Up to my usual DE standards... smooth.

    Comments : After years of using Tesco "own brand"/Personna rebadge, I plumped for a selection pack from Shaving Shack; 10 personna, 10 derby, and loaded the flare tip with 1 derby. They're not as aggressive as the personna, and are a welcome addition to the armoury. To be honest, I think the alum block's faulty... there was no sting.
