  • Blade: UK Tech Statum
  • Lather: Spearhead - Sea Ice Lime - Soap
  • Post Shave: Spearhead - Sea Ice Lime - Aftershave

Good shave. I switched up the razor and hit repeat on the scent. Loving the lime and menthol.

Which razor do you prefer between the CB and the Overlander?

[–] MaplePoplar 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I prefer the Overlander. It’s simple and very efficient. The CB is nice but I chose a shorter handle and slightly more aggressive plates. I feel like a solid B or C plate could be my cinderella setup. It’s expensive to chase perfection in copper though.
