    Yes, with a sharp blade, a light touch and the right angle, it’s a thing of beauty.

    I love the thin bar on a light head. You will enjoy the Gamechanger. I have the .84mm but I bet the .68 is sweet.

    Take care.

    I took off the safety bar and ground down the top cap thinner.

    Good evening.

    Gillette Wilkinson Sword DE Blade (6)

    I was going to hold off until tomorrow morning because I wanted to give my face a rest, but I changed my mind. After this evening's shave, I won't shave my face until Saturday, but will do a headshave tomorrow night. Anyway, I went with my Dovo shavette tonight. I learned to shave with this razor before I graduated to traditional straights.
    I enjoy Music City Suds Lavender because it is slick and provides an easy and creamy lather. Here's the lather:

    Did 3 passes and got a nice, close comfortable shave without any major issues, except a thin red mark on my neck that didn't bleed. I landed the blade incorrectly and caught it before any bleeding occurred. The alum was silent except for that area, but it was mild. Did my usual witch hazel and splash sequence to end this shave. Take care.

    Terrific Thursday shave Joe. It was a great time this morning at the diner. Unfortunately, we got shut out again without seeing our waitress.

    Well, look what found it’s way to my den! I think the last time I shaved with a Stick Schick was around 1981.

    I’ll report in tomorrow.
