    Tatara Masamune :love055: I'm in love!

    Oh yeah...the open comb is up for tomorrow.

    Look at that handle....378 perfectly machined dimples. The machine work on Tatara Razors just blows me away.

    Take care everyone!

    I wonder if Hogie @Hogie was able to get that hair ball out of the sink. :signs002:


    :D

    Marvelous MMBT shave Joe! Based on my MMOC razor, I definitely agree that they are excellent razors.

    The "easy to load" persuasion sounds good all right. I'll look into it, but will read and learn from all comments on it.

    Tomorrow's shave will be a "gametime decision". I have a plan out now, but may change to something else if it cools down, as it might.

    Good afternoon.

    Shavette Shave #387
    Dovo Shavette
    Personna Hairshaper Blade (6)
    Omega Pro 49 Boar Brush
    Shannon's Soaps The Warrior SS
    Pinaud-Clubman Classic AS
    Maggard's Alum Block
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Beard Growth: 26.5 hrs

    20220821_211322.jpg

    I just couldn't wait for this evening to shave. I felt like a little kid waiting for Christmas morning to open up my presents. Lol!
    Shannon's Soap The Warrior can take on a boatload of water and is very slick, but it only gives a low structure lather with a mild scent.
    I did a 2 passer without pickups, bloodshed or irritation for a BBS shave. Truth be told, I had a near BBS after 1 pass and could have called the shave dome, but I always do at least 2 passes. Shaving with Personna Hairshaper blades always give me excellent results. I would put them in the same league as Feathers, but they are quite smoother. Moreover, I get an average of 5x the number of shaves than I do on a Feather.
    The alum feedback was almost non-existent. Splashed the witch hazel and applied the Pinaud-Clubman Classic aftershave to finish the session. Unsurprising, I didn't get any burn from the aftershave which goes in line with the aforementioned negligible alum feedback and tells me that I got a super, smooth and comfortable shave. In the words of @Keithmax, it was an epic shave. Take care.

    I know the feeling well! LOL

    Up for tomorrow, "The Beast" with teeth and Professional blade. I hope the "Orange Creamsicle" glides nicely!

    I have only used CF Cryogen so I cannot say how the other soaps by that brand will do. I am sure you will have the water/soap ratio down to a tee.
