Great shave. Grabbed a new plate for my copper razor, very happy with the solid bar. Cool morning for menthol but I’m awake now.

Good shave. Very enjoyable scent and a soothing aftershave. This blade is at 12 uses and it’s probably time to retire it.

Good shave. Typically this is a busy work day, we’ll see how it plays out. Nice shot of menthol this morning.

Good shave. We are still experiencing an abnormally mild winter, can’t say I miss the cold much.

Good shave. Decent amount of stubble to knock down this morning. The Overlander is always able to provide a nice smooth shave.

Good shave. These blades are so hit or miss for me. It seems like every second one I pull out is super harsh or just not that sharp. I feel like I got a couple packs of lemons because my first experience with them was nothing but excellent.

Good shave. Warm weather’s rolling in and my mood is noticeably improved. Still an all time favourite scent I’m halfway through my second tub.
