- Brush: Chisel & Hound - Cherry w/ v25 Fanchurian
- Razor: Chiseled Face - Legacy Ti
- Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
- Lather: Catie’s Bubbles - Crangère - Soap
- Post Shave: Catie’s Bubbles - Crangère - Aftershave
- Fragrance: Catie’s Bubbles - Crangère - EdP
First full use of the Crangère trifecta. I love the EdP, but the jury is still out on the soap. Lather is amazing, but sometimes I don’t want a full perfume level scent in a soap. Maybe I just should have waited for a different day to use it.

- Brush: Yaqi 24mm Synthetic Panda
- Razor: King C. Gillette DE Razor
- Blade: Astra Superior Platinum (39)
- Lather: Haslinger Algae
- Postshave: Williams Aqua Velva
- Postshave: Nivea After Shave Balm
Repeat shave from yesterday. The blade is not the most efficient anymore – but I will probably still push it to 50, and then give up.
Have a good evening!

- Brush: Wolf Whiskers - “Gianmaria” w/Maggard 26mm Synthetic
- Razor: Joseph Rogers & Sons - Near Wedge (2)
- Lather: Barrister and Mann - Rhapsody - Soap
- Post Shave: Chatillon Lux - Sni Mato - Aftershave
This is my second shave with this razor, and both times have been incredible. Some folks might consider this edge unacceptable – slightly tuggy, a little ugly, and a non-traditional sharpening method of 600 -> 10,000, but it works.
Even my best DE shaves don’t often get this close. I still plan on putting more work into this razor, both cosmetically and trying to refine the edge a bit.

How dare you, good Sir, how dare you!
Experts ain’t got shit on me.

- Brush: Rad Dinosaur Creations “Stardust” - TurnNShave 26mm Shoat
- Razor: Yates Precision Manufacturing - 921-M
- Blade: Bolzano Superinox (5)
- Lather: Catie’s Bubbles - Crangère - Soap
- Post Shave: Catie’s Bubbles - Crangère - Aftershave
- Post Shave: Stirling - Glacial Unscented - Balm
- Fragrance: Catie’s Bubbles - Crangère - EdP
Very nice tart woody scent. Such a pleasure to shave with. The 921-M felt a little rough today, I probably need to bin this blade.
