    Razor: Razorock Game changer .84- Mfg 2018> excellent mid range combined with a Kai SS blade.
    Blade: Kai SS (9) excellent blade, one of my favorites. Extra wide than a standard Gillette, Sharp & smooth with great longevity.
    Soap: Razorock Don Marco- very nice citrus scent on a cold winter morning, excellent lather qualities.
    Brush: Yaqi lucky dice 26mm Tuxedo knot, very good lather creator, retains heat because of size, back bone with cloud like soft tips. Very enjoyable morning shave with this brush.
    Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on cleaned beard area.
    Prep: Cold water rinse after each rinse of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave: Italian barber Amici with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers = [​IMG]Excellent shave with my RR GC .84 with a Kai SS blade.

    Schick Easy Rider injector, (S)chick blade
    [​IMG]

    Used a single edge injector blade today after yesterday's shave with a twin blade in this razor. I used some crazy pressure though since this is a very mild razor. It does work well as long as you get the correct angle. End result is about the same as the twin blade but not nearly as smooth or irritation free because of the amount of pressure used. If I used a light hand the closeness may not have been same. Either way for something this mild it punches well above it's weight class if you find and keep the correct angle which is cap almost flat to the face and razor singing while cutting. BBS finish achieved and have to say this is one of those dark horse razors that just comes out of nowhere and up ends one's notion about mild razors that is unless you know how to use a Gem Featherweight correctly. ;)

    A good clean and smooth shave. Very similar to yesterday’s shave with the Brass General. The Hawk SS with the A plate is not as aggressive feeling as one would think but, it still does mow down the whiskers comfortably in 3 passes with minimal touch ups. It’s a good shaver. Great evening and shaves to all....
