Razorock Mamba 53 Double Edge safety razor in stainless steel and titanium

It's a very well made razor very mild but lovely to use the big downside is that after i bought it a couple of days later i saw it for sale at the english shaving shop for £25 less

Easy to order, goods delivered in good packaging. Thank you.

Used with my Parker Aero, sharp but very efficient. Took my time as I hadn't used this brand before, no nicks or irritation, really good. Again, another brand I would purchase again.

Astra Superior Platinum Double Edge Razor Blades 5 blade pack

First time use with this brand, I found the blade sharp but great with my Rockwell 6C using plates 4, 3 & 2. Would purchase again.

Hans Baier Safety Razor Blades – Pack of 10

Great scent, great value, well worth it.

Stirling Soap Co Shaving Soap Gatlinburg 170ml

Fantastic service, again!

Another great soap from Stirling. Plenty of lather using very little product. Great soap and great value for money. Thanks again Shaving Time.

Stirling Alighieri Shaving Soap 164g (5.8oz)

I've recently started shaving my head with a DE razor, I bought a basic brush and bowl set, the brush works well, but the brown is too tiny to generate any meaningful lather. Enter the Goodfellas shave bowl, with its ridges that aid in the production of rich creamy lather. It also means that I use less shave cream because of the efficiency. For me, this one levelled up my shave game!!

The Goodfellas' Smile Black Shaving Bowl

I bought this as an upgrade for my Edwin Jagger DE89. I shave my head and the standard handle is very slippery especially when shaving the back of my head. Enter the Razorock!! This handle is knurled giving me a positive connection with the razor, even with wet hands . The added weight feels good and adds to the shaving experience. It's a winner!!

RazoRock One Piece HALO Handle - 316L Stainless Steel

Great service as usual.

Nicely made, plenty grippy, and very effective!

I think this might be the ultimate autopilot razor; it's so mild, I can whip it around like a cartridge razor and not suffer razor burn. It doesn't give the ultimate BBS finish, but it's really not that far off.

I wish I had this thing when I was growing up... would have saved me from a lot of blood and pain! Now, I'm anticipating it'll be great for doing my head, as I'm afraid my hair's days are numbered.

Great service from initial order to delivery. Great prices compared to some providers. Many thanks.
