Another fine shave John, I normally cork all my blades before the first shave no matter the make or manufacturer. Cheers🍷🍷🍷🍷

Thankyou dan, have a great week mate 👍🏻

[@leeprice9649]

Nice shave John. There’s nothing worse than bad blades tearing your face to shreds. We’ve all been there. The shaving cream and balm did very well. Have a great week. Take care.

[@johnshaves101]

Thankyou Lee, your spot on too, those blades felt like they were dragging the hair out lol, have a great week lee 👍🏻 👍🏻

Swarf. I love that word.

Thankyou Robert, you too my friend 👍🏻👍🏻

[@Wittar7090]

I have had a few tucks of blades that have felt like a rusted scythe across my face. I used to just fight through it. Now, I do what you did; try another in the tuck and if the same result, then go to another blade. As you said, “I have lots of blades” as do I and many others in the community.

[@johnshaves101]

Absolutely spot on, there is zero point in ruining a shave, #Binthoseblades 🤣🤣🤣👍🏻

Hi John, SOTD Merkur 34g, Simpson T2 Brush, Willys Blade, Dr Harris Lavander Soap and Floid Aftershave. set me up for the Day, and a COTD H Upmann Coronas Major this afternoon…..ahhhhh! 👍🥳

[@johnshaves101]

Nice shave Paul, I love that cigar, a definite favourite of mine, I'm toying with having my 1st ever perdomo this weekend 😎😎👌

[@paulwozencroft279]

@@johnshaves101 Hi John, i’ve had the Perdomo 20th anniversary and the Champagne 10th anniversary. I think the 20th has a bit more body to it? let me know eh? enjoy!!!

[@BartBuzz]

Nice one, John. Despite the rough start. That's why newbies shouldn't start with the cheapest shaving stuff. A bad experience could turn them off. And they would miss all those close, comfortable shaves that wet shaving has to offer. I've had a few rogue blades but none that I couldn't use for at least one shave before discarding. The R-41 is in my collection but I rarely use it. It's not as threatening as I imagined if I take my time, focus, and settle for only two passes. It's just that I enjoy my shaves more when I can shave without worry. Until Saturday...cheers!

[@johnshaves101]

I agree 100% Bart, life is to short for bad shaves 😎😎👍🏻, have a great week mate 👍🏻

[@leehaseley2164]

We have had the day off today, so I took the opportunity to go out for lunch with my wife. She will be having an operation next weekend.

Enjoy Lee, I hope all goes well next week mate 🙏🙏

[@drunkn711]

Nice shave John! Interesting products today, I definitely haven't seen them before. Too bad the blades didn't work out, but the cream and balm looked nice 😀👍 My last SOTD: Stirling Scarn soap and splash, AP Shave Co 24mm cashmere brush, and the RazoRock German 37 slant with a unbranded blade from a local pharmacy. Have a good one! Steve

[@johnshaves101]

Hi Steve, yeah it was pretty decent stuff, apart from the blades, I think I tried scarn once not sure, have a great week Steve 👍🏻 👍🏻 😊

Rockwell R41? A little known collaboration?🤭🤭🤭🤭

[@johnshaves101]

Is that what I called it??! 😳😳😳😩😩😩😩

[@prustici]

We have the same problem, big fat fingers with no nails!😂 I can never open any packages hence I carry a pocket knife which gets used quite often. Awesome shave John, crack on buddy!😊

[@johnshaves101]

Haha we are the same, I too carry a pocket knife lol, fat fingers and bad eyesight, a horrible combo 😡, have a great weekend too 👍🏻👍🏻😁🤣🤣😂🙏

Shave of the day? HC&C Alpine Forest soap and splash. Merkur 44C. German Schick blade. Sawdust Creations brush.

Cheers Paul, you have a great week too mate 👍🏻

[@leehaseley2164]

Balea balm is available online here, but it works out quite expensive.

[@johnshaves101]

It's mad isn't Lee, just goes to show how we can get ripped of

[@leehaseley2164]

Talking of bowls being made for you, someone is 3D printing me one!

[@johnshaves101]

Very nice Lee, I look forwards to seeing it 👍🏻

[@leehaseley2164]

For a quid, that cream is a much better investment than the blades.😂😂

[@johnshaves101]

100% lee😁😁

[@unclelshaves]

Another great looking shave John👍 Not seen that cream around here. Some blades do better on the second shave and might benefit from a one pass corking to remove some of the "burrs", I do that with Feather blades, then again some blades just don't work on our face and beards!!! I don't seem to do well with German made blades.👌🤠👌

[@johnshaves101]

Thankyou lawrie, I hear ya on those blades, I'm the very same with Chinese blades, have a great week mate 👍🏻 👍🏻 😁

[@unclelshaves]

@@johnshaves101 Agreed hard to find good Chinese made blades, much prefer ones from India and Egypt, as an alternative to the Russian ones because of the embargo and P&G factory closure.👌🤠👌

[@leehaseley2164]

I reckon you want to get that blade swapped out quick smart.

[@johnshaves101]

Deffo 👍🏻😎😎

[@leehaseley2164]

Germaline? Does it smell like that? I used to fake injuries so I could have more of that antiseptic cream.

[@johnshaves101]

I used to love that smell Lee 😂😂😂

[@leehaseley2164]

From what you said, I think I would strongly dislike that cream, as I hate the smell of those little cheap soap bars.

[@johnshaves101]

I quite like this scent Lee, sweet soap creamy lol 😂 😂

[@pjwroblewski]

Well shaved. The wonderful thing about the R41 is that even though it's aggressive, it's still refined.

[@johnshaves101]

Spot on Patrick, it's a great shave, happy Wednesday 👍🏻🤣😎😎
