  Wow, nice lather. This was my first time trying Haslinger after hearing about it for years. Thanks @porkbuttsntaters666@sub.wetshaving.social!

  Historically I haven't liked Astra Superior Platinum (SP), but this Superior Stainless isn't too bad. A very close shave today.

    Isn’t the Superior Platinum considered the most popular blade due to its gentleness?

      I’ve never heard anything said about them other than “they’re the only blades I use”, or when recommending blades to new people “try Astra SP” (followed by not recommending any other blades).

      I just checked my old notes, and I actually seemed to like them more than I remember.

      The good news is I have some on hand, so I can revisit when I’m finished with this Superior Stainless assuming I don’t get distracted with something else.

    Happy you like it! I like the lather, but on eome days, I find the smell of 🐑 a bit strong.

  Today was a test shave for the refreshed edge that I put on this razor using my Olympus stone. The result was definitely much better than yesterday.

  This scent has a lot going on in it. The title relates to a master barber who has been working for many years, and the scent supposedly captures what his shop would smell like; worn wood floors, leather, some bay run, and so on. I certainly would not mind going to a shop that smells like this.

  The ring of death continues to grow in this tub. Quite a nice combination with TINAT.

  Ubrique hardly fits, but it's a damn good scent nonetheless.
