Thanks. First shave tonight. It's a pleasure to use and efficient as heck. Still looks good despite getting all lathery and wet ; ) I don't have many three band silver tips, but this is a great knot.

I was reading somewhere that the '52, '53, and '59 seem to have a large blade gap, not sure if it's true though.

Friday's Shave Cold Water Wash Van Der Hagen Luxury Shave Soap Jayaruh #326 Micromatic Open Comb Gem Blue Star CS SE CWR Barbasol Brisk AS My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Van Der Hagen Luxury Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #326 synthetic horse brush. I did two passes with the Micromatic Open Comb razor with a Gem Blue Star CS SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Barbasol Brisk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

2/8/19 RazoRock 400 Noir Plissoft Synthetic Shaving Brush Salsa Bowl / Timeless bowl scuttle Murphy & McNeil – Trinity, sample CVS SE blade – 4th shave Gem Feather Weight Nivea Aftershave balm Pinuad Clubman Classic Forth SE shave for this month and the first with the Feather Weight. Totally different experience with the FW vs the Shovelhead. The FW seems to be a little smoother and not as aggressive. It gave a nice shave with just a slight touch of alum burn. I would not even call it a burn but more of a warm sensation. The FW is definitely a light razor compared to the Shovelhead on the Weber bulldog handle. I was careful to not apply any pressure to the FW because of its weight. The Murphy & McNeil soap performed great and gave a nice slick cushion for the Feather Weight. Great scent as well. Finished up with some Nivea and Clubman classic. Overall it was a great Friday morning shave and I will give the Feather Weight some more attention in the future. They are great razors! Y'all take care and have a great Friday!
