Schafmilch is gone - it served me well. But this is only the first kill of the year. At least Marduk will not see 2025, either.
Have a good day!
Killing a tub just after the vernal equinox. Very nice way to start the spring season!
Of only I could say that it was on purpose 😭
Congrats on the kill!

Congrats on the kill!
Thanks! 😊
How is Marduk?
I like it, but it’s
- super soft
- super expensive
I will not buy it again, and I would hesitate to recommend it. But if you want to have a smoosh, PM me your address!

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
Great shave today! The fragrance of the soap and of the EdT are very nostalgic. My mind went somewhere when I started lathering and came back when the aftershave hit my face. Very nice.

- Brush: Zenith r/Wetshaving exclusive MOAR BOAR (31 mm × 57 mm bleached boar)
- Razor: EldrormR Industries - GEM Division: MM24
- Blade: Personna GEM PTFE
- Lather: Summer Break Soaps Teacher’s Pet
- Aftershave: Southern Witchcrafts Pomona
- Fragrance: Echt Kölnisch Wasser N° 4711
48 Stirling vs 34 SBS, 11 abstentions according to u/robodjudge’s tally.
Yesterday’s plebiscite yielded the predictable outcome (†) and the lowest participation rate since u/robodjudge started tracking March Madness. I expected the green juggernaut to win, but I was a bit surprised that that more people didn’t show up given how beloved both brands are.
Great shave with Teacher’s Pet this morning. The Kölnisch Wasser was a mistake, though, and the lemon opening overwhelmed the nice apple combo I had going.

(†) pending official confirmation by u/ShavinginCT, but u/robodjudge doesn’t usually make mistakes.

It’s nice going back to a favorite DE after using the MM24 for most of the month. The MM24 is a tad more aggressive than I like but boy are the shaves nice and close.
