With a roll of the die, the Shave Yahtzee gods have provided....

The Phoenix Shaving CK-6 soap in conjunction with a Blackland Blackbird matched with a Gillette Nacet blade, meant I was in for a real treat of a shave.

The Steeplechase Sport 2022 soap was excellent and smelled great! If you don't know, it's an homage to Polo Sport by Ralph Lauren and hits the mark very well. It's a classic '90s scent and for me is one that I'm quite familiar with and fond of. I'm such a sucker for cologne scent-inspired soaps and this one is no different. I love it and am glad I have it in my den.

The Blackbird sang its song as perfectly as it ever does. This is a razor that's intelligently designed and practically perfect in every way. I did four passes and ended up with a bbs shave. I just can't recommend this razor enough.

To round things out, I splashed on some matching Steeplechase Sport 2022 aftershave/cologne and walked away a happy man.

Rock on my friends and enjoy your shaves!
