SOTD 24-30 January 2021

John, how does the H&S mixed metal compare to the Weber DLC in efficiency?

Although it does not seem to glide quite as freely, even with an excellent lather, it is just as efficient. Just a different feel, somewhat like the Weber DLC.

Thanks.

SOTN Tuesday - I shaved.
SOTN Wednesday - I shaved again.
SOTN Thursday - Even more shaving, but this time with a new blade.

SOTN Friday - Shaving never ends does it?

prep - shower with Caprina Fresh Goat’s Milk Original Formula bar soap
razor - Edwin Jagger DE87
blade - Wilkinson Sword (2)
brush - APShaveCo SynBad
soap - Omega
post - warm water rinse, DSA alum stick, cold water rinse
aftershave - RazoRock Amici splash
music - the "Indie" playlist on the "CBC Listen" app - Interpol, Music on the Radio, The New Pornographers, etc.


I thought I'd give Wilkinson Sword blades another chance.
Not that I'd buy any more of them, since they cost 10x more than the Shaverboy blades, and don't (so far) do any better job of it.
It's still almost new, so BBS tonight again.
