Round two in the Blackbird VS Dart showdown. The results pretty much mirrored the first round. The Dart, while capable of delivering a two pass out the door BBS shave, requires one to be fully focused during the shave. The Blackbird would be more of a three pass razor for me, but feels more comfortable during use and would forgive you an occasional lapse in focus.

 

Pre: Warm water splash
Brush: Semogue 2000 Boar
Soap: OSP Fougere
Razor: Marspen OC
Blade: Gillette Nacet
Post: Warm then cold water rinse, OSP Fougere ASL

A great midweek OCtober shave.
Happy Shaving one and all.
