SOTD January 28th
Gillette Fatboy (6)
Schick Krona Chrome
Wild West Brushworks Jungle Ebonite (26mm, Frigate Class)
Viking Blades Langham Spa activated charcoal shavecream.
Myrsol Lemon
My wife bought me this shave cream and stand so of course I had to give it a go. The cream off the tub is black and although on the Viking Blades website they list the scent as "Calm, Luxurious and Mature", I really couldn't detect a scent. I scooped out a fingers worth of the cream (which was too much) and whipped it up into a nice lather in my scuttle. Once I felt I had the lather ready I painted it on and went to work. I don't know if it was the lather or the blade but the shave felt a little rough. There seemed to be an abnormally high amount of blade feel for the FB on 6 and it felt a bit tuggy. I will give the blade another shot with some Stirling lather to determine if it was the blade or the lather that was the issue. The results however were a nice DFS with no irritation so I can't complain there.
