  3. Week 4 (Anything Goes)
    Feb. 23 Episode 23: “There Will Be Blood--part II”

    Razorock Classic TTO
    A nice, efficient shaver… tad bite-y if you take your eyes off the road, but not bad...

    Week 4, Day 2 Gear
    • Blade: Voskhod (2)--A pretty decent blade. Performance-wise in the neighborhood of the Personnas I’ve been using… maybe even slightly better. Can’t argue with the price either.
    • Brush: Kong
    • Soap: Barrister’s Reserve Cool (love that scent)
    • Enhancements: Stirling Frost Drops
    • AS: Aqua Velva Ice Blue.
    • Balm: Stirling Glacial Unscented.
    The Shave
    The shave was extremely pleasant today: two passes that knocked back some left-over growth from yesterday’s unfinished shave. A comfy WTG pass, followed by an equally comfy XTG pass. Followed by re-opening the weeper I got from Friday's shave--blasted thing still haunts me. Shave over, but I’m still slightly better than DFS. Definitely was not ashamed to go to church.

    The Score
    • Comfort: 0
    • Closeness: 0
    I’m going to have to be mindful of the small cut I got with the Variant if I want to log in any bloodless shaves this week. I have high hopes, though
  4. Awesome shave Andrew!
    Thanks Jim!

    Thanks Tim! The weekend was a success. I escaped with my sanity too...or part of it !

  5. Thanks, Joe! It was my own fault. I could have very easily settled for the DFS+. I just can’t help myself! I do love the smoooth!

  6. Great shave, Tim! Voskhods are one of my favorite blades. It’s the one I use with the first shave of a new razor!
