    • Brush: AP Shave Co. - 24mm Synbad Fan
    • Razor: Blackland Era - Level 3 SB
    • Blade: Bolzano Superinox (Germany) (1)
    • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. - Haverford - Soap
    • Post Shave: Summer Break Soaps - Woodshop - Aftershave
    • Post Shave: allMan - Refined - Balm
    • Fragrance: Cross/Cut - Warm Woods - EdT

    The Bolzano blade experiment continues. Yesterday I used an Egypt blade, and today a Germany blade. Tomorrow I’ll do a side by side comparison, but I wanted to get a shave on each of them before comparing since I know at least the German version changes after the first shave.

    I want to say the Germany blade felt slightly less sharp, but just as smooth as the Egypt version yesterday. Either they have slightly different bezels, or it’s just a difference in coatings.

    Both yesterday and today were really excellent shaves, and I’m looking forward to using them both tomorrow. I just have to pick a razor to use them in. Either keep them in the Era, or use a Tech? I think a Tech is better suited for switching blades multiple times mid-shave.
