New #77: Cleared for Takeoff

New #77: Cleared for Takeoff

Razor: 1936/38 Gillette New #77 Blade: PermaSharp (2) Brush: Omega Boar 11126 Soap: Phoenix & Beau - Spitfire Aftershave: Aqua Velva

An excellent shave this morning. The New paired with a PermaSharp on its second use delivered the usual smooth, close, comfortable two pass shave. These blades always have great longevity as well — I’ve managed to get around 8 shaves from one in the past before finally having to retire it.

The Omega boar whipped up a lovely rich creamy lather from the Spitfire soap, and the sweet smokey, leathery scent was fantastic as always.

Finished off with a splash of the classic Aqua Velva for a nice cool finish.

Cheers 👍
