    • Brush: Rad Dinosaur Creations - w/AP Shave Co. Cashmere 26mm Synthetic
    • Razor: Star Double Edge
    • Blade: Bolzano Superinox (German) (2)
    • Lather: Fanzine Saponifications - Caravaggio - Soap
    • Post Shave: MW - Bay Rum - Aftershave
    • Post Shave: Stirling Soap Co. - Friends to the End - Balm

    This razor is definitely more efficient than a Tech, at least with a Bolzano. I like it. Not too aggressive, either. Naturally I plan on doing a side-by-side shave to compare them one of these days.

    • I’m also tempted by such a razor – but who knows whether there will be ever imports towards the EU again 😭

      At least it wouldn’t have to pass through the Strait of Hormuz 🤔

        The Golden One has now heard about this place, but I guarantee you, he could not find it on a map. He would be able to find it if it were located at 80⁰ N latitude and above. Then it would appear large enough, and it would look like a great place to put a golf resort. He doesn’t understand what a Mercator projection is, nor how it distorts a spherical surface. (Sometimes I can’t help but go on a rant – I’m only a little younger than the Golden One)

        I can certainly stick one in the mail and see what happens 🤓

        There were some British made Star razors, too. They look identical.

    Tub Kill Day 6 - March 17, 2026

    • Prep: Shower
    • Brush: Badlands Shaving w/ AP Shave Co G5c 26mm
    • Razor: Gillette flat bottom tech
    • Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
    • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - Haverford
    • Post Shave: Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Cream
    • Fragrance: Chatillon Lux - Rose Santal
    • Whiskers: Jojoba/Argan w/Tea Tree Oil
    • Skin Health: Zinc Oral Supplement

    My Saponificio Varesino 70th Anniversary came yesterday. It smells wonderful and the tin is pretty neat looking. Thought about taking a day off from killing this tub to give it a try, but I’m going to stick it through all the way. The tub is getting pretty low. Should be gone in a week or so. I might stick with my badger brush until it’s gone cause that will get rid of it pretty quick. There’s a huge difference before and after today’s shave.

      I admire your restraint.
