Cool razor - is it original? I’ve never seen one in this good state before.
All original. It was a little dull looking when I got it, but it polished up easy enough and cleaned right up. I love this thing.
Gorgeous razor!
I really lucked out with it

Brush: Simpsons Chubby 2 Jade 27mm HMW
Lather: Martin de Candre - Fougère - Soap
Toner: Thayers - Lavender - Toner
Aftershave: PannaCrema - Nuàvia Verde - Balm
2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
A very close, very comfortable shave from this Évidé Sonnant. Perhaps the best edge that I’ve had on this razor. And, it was a test shave. Here’s the honing video.
MdC Fougère and Nuàvia Verde really compliment each other. A pretty terrific fougère Friday, I’d say.
Have a great weekend!

I seem to remember the Streamline (ok sorry, “Ambassador”) that I borrowed from EldrormR being milder than this one. I still like the way this one shaves, but it feels similar to my other GEM razors aside from the Bullet Tip which is mild.
Yesterday, I had broken up the ring of death to cover the bottom of the tub, and today’s load already broke through it again. This thing is racing to its conclusion.
I added a talc step to the routine and thoroughly enjoyed it. I should just do it by default, it’s always a plus.
The big Koraat is fun. The blade is great, but unlike most straight razors, the tang, the spine and the tail have been left raw. Love it.

There’s no doubt. I am really surprised not to see more of these Sparschweinchen around. Ulrik does terrific work.

I feel that way too, and feel a little vain to admit it, but, there it is.

I suspect the marketing as a budget razor might not have been the best.

Same. I think it adds some awesome character
I think it adds some awesome character Maybe, but I am not a fan of this sort of character – I like the shiny and polished stuff (probably because contrary to other humans, who descend from apes, I descend from magpies).
I agree. I think the Piggy Bank razors are real gems.
Friday, April 12, 2024: Le vendredi du cerf
It was a beautiful day, and in the evening, I caught the sweet scent of hydrocarbures. Obviously, this needed to be extended. I took out the Stag – which I had unfortunately bought in the tallow version. It lathers not very well (at least with my hard water here), although it’s slick enough. The aftershave is excellent, though.
The shave itself was good, and my face feels hydrated and relaxed.
Have a good night!
