    This Ragg is always a contender for top razor in the den. I picked it as I knew it would perform well regardless of the soap. I keep trying to make this GFT work for me but no dice. It seems like it just quickly evaporates from my face no matter how much I lather it up in the tub or on my face. Any GFT fans out there with a technique suggestion? And, yes, the Ragg provided an outstanding shave - smooth and sharp. :happy036:

    The Box got hung up so I haven't shaved for nearly 2 weeks until today. Was getting itchy.

    AHHHHHHHHHH. That's much better.

    1st pass (more like 1/4 pass): One Blade Core. Nope. Maybe if it didn't pivot but...nope.

    1st pass, neck: TNNSER 3D printed razor by @twhite . One of the best SE shaves I've ever had, and that was using the carbon Pal, not a PTFE stainless. I am impressed and keeping it.

    2nd pass, face: Gillette Rocket. Never used one before and it performed exactly as I expected, very well. Was not expecting the comfortable heft but I really have no use for it so it's going back in the box.

    A/S: Avon Blend 7, also from the Box.
