    I like aggressive yet smooth razors. There are quite a few 3D printed razors I'd like to get. Eventually I will get some more but there are several more vintage razors calling to me.

    I had an excellent shave with my Schick type I Hydro-Magic. I really like the patina the brass is developing. Today was the first use of my new copper Zenith B36 boar brush, which my wife got me for my birthday. It is super scrubby. This is the lower loft version so I expected it to be as such. However I'm sure it will soften considerably with a bit of use. I may get the higher loft version too in the future. I'm looking forward to watching the patina develop on the copper.
    Today's watch is the Casio world time on a 22mm strap using Jays&Kays adapters.

    I picked the Schick C1 for my shave today. I wanted to use the Zenith Boar my wife got me for my birthday on my birthday so I shaved again today even though I don't normally shave every day. It was a very good shave. And although I don't usually take the time to do it I think I could shave every day if they all went this smoothly.

    What do you think of the LEA aftershave? I bought the soap (shame on me) but not the A/S.

    That is such a cool looking set, and I can vouch for the effectiveness of that head.

    Thanks, Jim. There's a higher offset on the head and an improved comb/safety bar geometry, and much easier to change the blade. An all-around improved head design for sure. It's just difficult to print. One out of ten come out usable.

    Omega 11126 boar
    Hampshire Wool Fat
    Yaqi Raster V3
    Kai Pink ( 3 )
    Tuff Red A/S Lotion

    Am finding this a bit more aggressive than the V2, and managed with ill considered strokes get a couple of weepers.The overall finish was quite good and long lasting.

    Oops I forgot it was Micromatic Monday when I grabbed a razor this morning.
    The Mitchell's lathered better today than it previously has but could still use some improvement.
    The Veg has never let me down. And the Wabbit by twhite is a fantastic and very efficient razor.
