Reef Point Submariner today. 20 seconds to load the Honey Farm/TGN Premium Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Vintage Gillette Platinum-Plus still in the Gillette Fat Boy. Excellent smooth, close shave. I finished with Reef Point Submariner aftershave.

Another superb shave with Uncle Jon's. I added more water this time, and the lather was even thicker. Top Notch all around.

I'm so glad that I persevered with the Glissant base, especially after my first couple of shaves, which were quite disappointing, because Eventide and Promises are outstanding soaps... excellent performance, and scents that are right up my street. Couldn't wish for anything more. Well, maybe the return of Fireside, I guess....

Damn fine shave, in just one pass, with no blood shed.
