    Figured I'd start a thread for those that have the Carbon Shaving Co products. Just because. If I screwed up again and there is already a thread my apologies.

    I have the Cx-316L with the original plate, + plate, and ++ plate. So as most of you know I like adjusting my plate to the pass I am on. I'm letting be known right now that the + and the ++ plates are milder than the original plate even with the larger gaps. You could get one with any plate and it will be a great shave, in my opinion.

    Here is the first shave for this post;

    Christmas Season, Day 8.

    M. A. Space Soap Christmas 2019 for the awesme!

    Prep: Hot Shower and Bloom/Lather Building Water
    Soap: M. A. Space Soap Christmas 2019
    Razor: Carbon Shaving Co Cx-316L (Original, +, and ++)/Merkur Mustache and Eyebrow Razor
    Blade: Dorco ST-301 (1)/Merkur Mustache and Eyebrow Blade (7)

    Freedom Friday to smell like the gnarled Veteran/Contractor that I am. Like a well used hammer with slight refined details.

    My deodorant of choice these days is Tabac, although Everyman Jack does last a good while. Right now I'm using Nivea deodorant, the German-made stuff, as my daily. But I get your point about being a gnarled veteran.

    Thank you, sir.
    Nivea makes good stuff. Pleasant scent when you apply it, but very faint soon afterwards. I've got Tabac as well, but I only use it when I go Full Tabac. I love me some Tabac. It's just really nice.
