After finishing my week on the excellent Wilkinson Sword White Label blade I returned to the Treet Blue Special carbon for a few days of R&R. Man, that’s one spectacular blade – every time I come back to it, its benchmark status is reaffirmed. I used a superlather made from Old Vulfix Sandalwood shave cream and the Cristallo unscented stick from Razorandbrush.com, worked up with the wonderfully scrubby Simpson Chubby #2. The Treet sliced through the beard with barely a sound…sharp and smooth beyond belief. If there were ever a product that challenges the price/value relationship, the Treet is it! At about a dime a piece I can afford a fresh blade each day without guilt. I even actually enjoy the ritual of loading it into the razor every day, with its shiny black paint job and glistening edges….and what a shave! Finish was with the alum block and Trumper’s Coral Skin Food, followed by a splash of Aqua Velva.
