Gorgeaus and Very Efficient Razor

I was chasing this beauty for very long time....
I wanted it in silver and finally got it....
Very pleased how it looks and most importantly how it shaves.. Not too aggressive , not too mild and very efficient. Never had Merkur 34 and I can not compare to the previous version. This one feels more aggressive than my Henson (mild) and milder than Fatip Classic Original (open comb)
Overall very pleased

Simpsons sandalwood is a high quality shave cream. Very lubricious, moisturising, giving a very smooth , close shave. Very pleased.

Semogue Galahad Premium Boar Brush

Great choice of excellent brushes at competitive prices. Very well made and pleasing looking brush. Fast delivery. Firm backbone that delivers plenty of lather. I’ve tried straight to face and bowl. Easy in the hand to use

First Order

Very impressed. Order arrived swiftly, well packaged & the new razor is excellent. Particularly recommended to anyone who has used a Gillette Super speed & wants a modern take on that classic. It has a little more weight, is slightly more aggressive & looks & feels like a much more expensive razor.

The Old Version of Erasmic

I was very happy to buy an old, made in EU, version of Erasmic shaving cream. It looks like I got the last one. Unfortunately, the makers have switched to a Chinese supplier and that product is completely different, with an unpleasant smell, no foaming and so bad for shaving. Be warned!

I was recommended the Merkur 34C as an introduction to DE Razors. I wasnt disappointed. Ease of use and a comfortable shave (no cuts or visit to A&E)
