Hi all,
I had a great shave this afternoon with the Razorock German 37 Slant this is a smooth shaving efficient DE I'm almost curtain Razorock modelled the head on the original
Merkur slant razor (which unfortunately has been dulled down somewhat in the current version) I know this because I have tested the old and the new side by side.
The head works very well with the Ti halo handle giving it very nice balance in the hand.
It gave me very close shave with the Nacet Blade which are up the top for sharpness in the DE blade world.

The TGS Orange Empire AJ-1 formula is a fine non tallow soap with a nice citrus scent it gave good cushioning with a fresh after shave feel.

Finished of with cheap but ok Cusson's Splash only $10 AU.

1 pass WTG 1 pass ATG done no touch ups.
No nicks No worries.

Have a great next shave everyone.:)
Cheers.

SOTD - 3/18/2026

Abbate Y La Mantia Verbena Toscana
Abbate Y La Mantia Citrus Accord Aftershave Splash
Rex Envoy Razor Polished

Brush by Runeman Nordic Shave Design
“DarkGold Rocks" pearlescent dark gold akrylic, "Red Rocks" highlight from Bear Tooth Woods interspaced with 4 brass inlays and brass Makers Mark coin. Boti 26mm SHD Captains Finest 2 Band bulb shape badger knot.

SOAP:

We chose scented vervain as the plant in the citrus family. Not only fruit and not only flowers.

Tuscan vervain grows uncontrolled. Walking through these hills you might spot it everywhere, as well as bushes of officinal sage. Its notes are an olfactive combination of a lemony head, a heart of lemongrass, and a soft base of lemon balm.

“The smell of vervain is Tuscan: Pure enchantment, clear colors, and sharp contours.”

It is a citrus candy; sugar-free. A solid syrup, acrid and hesperidic but absolutely bright. High, top notes, perfect for a ritual that takes place intimately and in your own bathroom.

AFTERSHAVE:

A post-shave perfume that contains cosmetic ingredients but focuses on its fragrance. This splash pairs with all 3 of the Agrumi hard shaving soaps.

HESPERIDIC ACCORD: It has been dosed in accordance with each citrusy note. It is achieved by balancing the common notes to the hesperidian family.

Interpretation of a citrusy accord without wanting to use hesperidic fruity notes. A modern petitgrain sublimated by aldehydic notes; tamed by black currant and geranium and grounded by notes of vetiver.
