That spitfire crashed on the second pass. Beautiful frame back Johan ! All the best with your electrifying trip ! Best wishes to your daughter. Fun fact : in South Africa we have load shedding for up to 6 hours a day( no power) and a proposed increase in energy prices of 18.5%. And that’s for 30% less electricity 😂 talk about an energy crisis. More like a corruption crisis💩 have a great Sunday and safe trip 🙏🏽❤️❤️

[@Shave_n_Butcher]

It did indeed crash. Yes I have heard about the electricity situation in South Africa. We have an office in Cape Town where I understand water is also somewhat lacking.

[@oldschoolshaving]

@@Shave_n_Butcher Cape Town is the best city in South Africa. It is simply stunning. Very tourist centric. When we can’t afford to travel to Europe , we go to Cape Town 😂😂❤️❤️

[@Shave_n_Butcher]

@@oldschoolshaving I Hope I will be able to go one day

[@oldschoolshaving]

@@Shave_n_Butcher you will! It’s a stunning city to visit. It’s the birthplace of our country. The Dutch settlers rocked up on the shores of Cape Town in the 1820’s while passing by to grab some spices from India and decided to annex it😂 the rest is history. Then my grandparents from India decided to come check South Africa out in the 40’s and that’s my history 😂 and now we are all united on the Tube 🤩

Just take a big extension cable..... Have a good week mate 👍

[@Shave_n_Butcher]

Good advice, thanks!!

[@gordonchristie246]

Nice shave Johan, that is a cracking scent and can take a fair bit of water. A lovely looking blade. Have a great weekend. Very best regards Gordon 👍

[@Shave_n_Butcher]

Thanks Gordon. You too!

Hoping not to be pedantic, but when referring to the smell at 0:48 , that would logically be comparing the smell to a prop fighter rather than a fighter jet (though chances are that, indeed, the soap smells better than a fighter jet as well 😉). Anyways, nice shave, take care during your drive and enjoy the weekend. My shave this morning (Abbate y Mantia - Crumiro) was amazing, which made for a very satisfying start of the weekend 😄

[@dappershaves]

i’ve used a sample of Abatte and found it very good. excellent feedback, regards dapper shaves

[@Shave_n_Butcher]

Thanks. I have to admit I know very little about planes....

[@markalexanderwalsh8937]

Enjoy your Drive, stay safe 👍🏼

[@Shave_n_Butcher]

Thank you, sir

[@eivindkaisen6838]

I like the Spitfire soap. A bit of an acquires taste - it's not immediately inviting - but it grows on you. Further kudos for scent strength and excellent performance. Albion is very refreshing (if it's not off as yours was) - but in a very different scent family.

[@Shave_n_Butcher]

You remember! I was looking forward to Albions, but the off put me off.

[@eivindkaisen6838]

As per request, from Google: "Produced in only a few countries, tussah silk is perhaps best known as a WILD SILK that is collected in the forests of India and other countries in South Asia. This golden-hued silk is different from cultivated silks - it is more textured and spins up into a yarn with a bit more loft to it" (My CAPS)

[@steveboyd3455]

So... not like Cognac ie from a city called 'Tussa' somewhere? 😜

[@Shave_n_Butcher]

Excellent, thanks Eivind!

Political science ... "No-one likes us, I don't know why. We may not be perfect but heaven knows we try. [...] Asia's crowded, Europe's too old Africa's far too hot, and Sweden is too cold". Spologies to Randy Newman, whose version is better: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGbQcqiGnJaNkNk

[@Shave_n_Butcher]

Lovely!

[@andrewhawkins6454]

Hello Johan. Nice joke and shave again. Also, apparently everybody should have a Frame back razor. Oh no. A Weck will go on hold. Hope you have a safe journey. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍

[@Shave_n_Butcher]

Weck, frameback...why choose?

[@andrewhawkins6454]

Hahaha. Okay okay. One of each, or do you mean............. no....... okay a collection of each. Better? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍

[@Shave_n_Butcher]

@@andrewhawkins6454 Good man!

[@HDShaves]

Hey Johan! I don't think it was "your fault" that the soap didn't lather well or that you started bleeding while lathering.. I blame it all on the horse knot! I see no reason to use horse when synthetic, badger, and boar are all better options :/

[@Shave_n_Butcher]

Well...I really like that horse hair brush. I blame myself.
