December 10, 2024 – Bleu Teusday

Brush: Oumo Warhammer Iceberg 27mm Meri-2
Blade Holder: Tatara Amakuni
Blade: Feather Artist Club Professional (2)
Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - Deep Blue Sea - Soap
Aftershave: Stirling Soap Co. - Deep Blue Sea - Aftershave
Fragrance: Chanel - Bleu de Chanel
Talc: Yardley Classic

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.

This was my first use of the Tatara Amakuni. This is a very clever and extremely well executed razor for artist club blades.

You can never go wrong with Bleu Man on Bleu Teusday!

  Thanks! I used it again today. Lots of thought (I think) went into the weight and balance of this stainless one. Feels really good in-hand.

I have the Tedalus Essence, which is a good shaver. But I must say that for all the cleverness of a magnetic fixation, I prefer the good old mechanical pinching.

    The magnets in the Tedalus are very strong, and its not as easy with it to properly align the blade.
