    Menthol Monday again, and I got a great cold shave. The rubberset refitted with a badger made wonderful lather from bombed black ice. The floating head made me completely smooth and comfy. Finished with alum and Stirling wh lotion. Excellent results.

    This is my other birth year Russian razor - the last one was from the ZTV factory, this one is from the STIZ factory. Less sharp but more forgiving. This was the second shave on it since I touched it up on the white Arkie. Very little alum noise and no drama while shaving. Maybe not as close a shave as the ZTV but face-rubbing goodness for sure. :happy036:
