08 March 2013Razor: Cobra Classic + Feather Professional (8) Brush: Elite7 Scarlett + WSP HMW 23/50 Soap: Martin de Candre - Savon À Raser (43)AS: Krampert's Finest Acadian Spice Bay Rum -- Hip Flask
After a few shaves with the Streamline I was starting to think the Cobra wasn't all that, or at least that the Streamline was as good. I apparently insulted the Cobra so it delivered a shave today to leave ZERO doubt; the Cobra Classic is on a different level. A splendidly sublime shave today. My apologies Cobra for my brief unbelief.
