  5. Still Unforgiven
    I went back to the OCMM today to see if I can master it. I got a very close shave, but also a couple weepers and some irritation. I think I'll try a different method tomorrow - maybe I'll skip the ATG and just do another WTG pass, or maybe just three WTG passes because this razor is very efficient indeed. The lather from WSP Citrus Blast was very thick and easy to make with my Brothers Bristles Bimetal Brush. Pi Neo is a nice compliment to the citrusy soap scent.

    Good morning guys. I've been rotating my razors lately and this morning the 1955 SS was up but I missed my R41 too much and went with it instead. Guys as soon as it touched my face I was swiftly reminded of how aggressive this razor is...there is no cap riding with it, concentration is paramount but if you proceed with caution the reward is the closest most beautiful shave there is DE wise. :love055: Stirling's Ozark Mountain is so lovely...rub the puck on your face people, it's amazing. Mita is a proper way to finish. Have a great shave and a great Friday friends. :)
