    Bunny V3 Injector
    Schick Proline B20
    CWR
    Tabac AS

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Tabac Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #330 brush. I did two passes with the Bunny V3 Injector Razor with a Schick Proline B20 blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    The sixth shave of my shavette focus is in the books. I performed WTG & ATG passes and some touch up. I finished with Clubman as a nod to @Paul Turner, and I'm ready for a big Thursday!

    Enjoy your day!

    Excellent #tbt
    All these products are classics, imho, and came together for an excellent experience. The Vision is a heavy beast and I let the weight do the work. Proraso red was my preshave, and PAA Sartorial provided top lather and scent.

    Birthday Shave

    Razor: Karve with a “D” plate. Solid brass and bead blasted for a subtle matte finish
    Blade: Gillette Silve Blue
    Brush: WDC-8 Brass Handle w/ MS two Band 100% Finest Badger Extra Density 24/63
    Soap: Route 66 Ghost Town
    A/S: Old Spice Lime
    Bowl: Boise Mud Works Blue

    An amazing new razor to me from Karve. I like the design with the diffeent base plates to dial in a great shave. This razor looks incrediable and the shave is outstanding.
    As a bonus my wife gave me the money for the razor for my birthday present, and some people wonder what love is. :)
