    Been awhile since I used this razor and first time since it was repaired by @twhite . I've had old types that are super vicious and others that are fairly mild. This one is on the mild side. The way the shoulders are designed the blade can load uneven and with more exposure than the other. This shave the razor was lined up evenly on both sides. I'll try it with the more exposure on one side of the blade next before making any final proclamations on the razor. Overall a slightly less than BBS finish was achieved.

    The Timeless Ti just delivers. Awesome face feel from the alloy and just a superb performer from stroke 1. The WCS Chypre is a hugely underrated shave cream. Gorgeous and protective lather with a wonderful scent. Very little talk about it but, this soap is very, very good. A wonderful evening and shaves to all....    ​

    Thanks guys! I really dig the PAA homage to Royal Mayfair. It's great to have a scent-matched grooming set around this one now.
