  • Brush: AP Shave Co Strawberry Cream 26mm G5A

  • Blade Holder: Blackland Razors Vector

  • Blade: Feather Artist Club Professional (10)

  • Lather: MacDuff's Soap Co. - Old Strathcona - Soap

  • Aftershave: Unilever - Brut - Aftershave

2 passes. Bowl lather. Excellent shave.


I don't really do sweet and sugary, so I'm off theme today.

I haven't used the Vector in a long time, but that can be said for all of my safety razors. I think the Vector is an incredibly clever design, but the razor's cap has a squared-off threaded bolt that the handle screws onto. Very cool idea, and very easy to cross-thread. I wonder how many replacement caps they've sold? Still, it's a great shaving razor.
