Changing the Botiho configuration to hold the gel tip knot. Absolutely delightful, firm, confortable and beautifully soft.

[Image: mGKHpfx.jpg]New soap today, Sharp Dressed Man by Stirling. So with a scent akin to Creed’s Green Irish Tweed I wanted a razor to match and so the ultra minty 48-50 Gillette Aristocrat was chosen. Lovely razor and a virtual time capsule case and all.
Loaded up with a fresh Gillette Platinum blade...of course.

Lovely scent on this SDM and one that has made the short list of fine scents in the den. As with all Stirling’s soap I have the performance is quite good and the scent phenomenal. Lighter in scent than expected but a very nice one indeed. Chubby 2 had no issues and the wall of Badger was a face lathering dream!

Lovely two pass DFS to start the week. So four new soaps in short order reviewed, much more where that came from on the way!

Happy shaves all!
