    It really looks nice Mr. Cawtuh-just flip in the blade and shave, right(so it appears)?

    Glad to hear things improved with the V2, Danny. What blade are you using in there, out of curiosity. Yup, need to ride the cap regardless.
    Ironically, your experience with the V2 mirrors my initial experience with the Katana. It was a pussycat for you and a symbolic weapon from the French Revolution for me. Vice Versa on this one, it appears.

    A new razor to you, Gary? Or did I miss posts on it before this week? What is the backstory on it, as I don’t believe I know anything about the razor?

    If I may suggest that you keep familiar gear on hand and start with partial shaves on the stuff new to you.

    A quick way to convince yourself to give up is to try to do it all at once and have a crummy experience.

    I think you made that suggestion last week, as well, and I will.

    Thanks, Clint...What you described as a ‘change of pace’ photo, I describe as ‘Holy Smokes, I forgot to take a pic, I’d better throw the used shave towel down on the countertop and take one quick before lathering’. Your euphemism is a little more succinct.:)

    Sunday Shave

    Gillette NEW Long Comb
    Gillette 7OC Super Platinum (1)
    Omega 11126 Boar
    Haslinger Seaweed Shaving Soap
    T.N. Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Epsilon Blue Aftershave
    Nivea Sensitive Cooling PSB
    Nautica Voyage EdT

    A Seaweed Sunday Shave was on tap this morning and it left my face feeling smooth and refreshed. I switched to the NEW Long Comb and 2+ passes provided a comfortable and efficient result with no irritation or mishaps to report. This Nivea balm contains seaweed extract which provides the slight cooling/refreshing effect (there's no menthol). There's enough menthol in the Epsilon aftershave to give a great chill though.

    Here is some stellar lather from after the shave:
