Hello everyone,

Trying out the 0.3 and 0.7 plates to check my initial choice of a 0.5 plate for this Number 7 razor of ATELIER DURDAN.

The plates were lent to me as part of the PASS AROUND organised by the AGAINST THE GRAIN forum and with the kind cooperation of HOLYZEUS from Great Britain, whom I would like to thank very much here.

I found this delicious scent of violets from JABONMAN complemented by this excellent AS from ETHOS

Test with an ASTRA GREEN plate

Verdict:
-> The violets ... What happiness
-> 0.3 plate - it doesn't shave much, so I quickly switched to the other one
-> 0.7 plate - I love it, it's super effective and gentler than the 0.5.

Well, the next test will be with the 0.5 and 0.7 plates, but this one has won me over - I'll take the opportunity to give you more details.

Today, BBS in 2 passes with a few touch-ups



Et voilà,

Have a nice day !

Have a great day to you all..

I don't care for that brand but you get a "like" for color and design coordination.

Thank you Sir... Tedolph

If you mention for Niva Mono brush, it is a Turkish brand that makes professional barber/coiffeur/beauty saloon items. But they are not making shave brushes anymore, so this brush is kinda vintage now

Here is Niva brush web site link...
