    Not to influence you unduly, but it is one of my favorites. Hope you enjoy your shave tomorrow! I found it to have a really wide sweet spot!

    2020 Shavette Focus Shave # 3

    I enjoyed an early morning two-passer followed by a day of errands and visits. I suffered a small nick on my cheek, again due to the leading corner of the blade. The root cause was either inattention or sidefumbling due to the prefabulated amulite residue on the blade. Overall, it was a good shave; however, I have some very slight irritation after three super close daily shaves with the SRX. I'll give my skin a break tomorrow by performing a single WTG pass and calling it a day.

    Happy Monday!

    Great shave, Charlie! It is one of the reasons why I give myself at least 36 hours between shaves. Also, my beard is light in color and doesn't grow too fast during that time frame.

    timabababaluka No exceptions. Except.....

    The key to success is not buying more than 7. Wish I'd used the same principle for getting down to 3 ;)
