    No problem, a cheap travel model when flying you can replace is needed as you do not want a hard to replace model even if the model is not super expensive for the baggage handlers to potentially break you do want to know about the model you have should it get broken or like my Micro Touch One has locked up because you can keep twisting where it might lock up again. This locking issue due to loose butterfly hinges is the most common issue with the Weishi butterfly models.

    I did have to due to the two cuts that healed right away, flip the blade for my next shaves then will start on dial 2 but more than likely go have to go to dial 3.

    I am not flying anytime soon, but if I was, then I would just use cartridge razors.

    I do not have a cartage razor anymore. They all suck but if I did get something it would be a Twin Trac II sold though the 7 O'clock line and using the Personna blades for the shaver.

    Greetings,

    Early morning shave,

    Last early morning shave and working shift of 2025 before I break up for the Christmas holidays until the 5th January 2026!...I've hardly taken any of my holidays this year so I'll have a nice long relaxing Christmas break.

    I have mentioned before in my post that I find the La Barbiera shaving soaps works well with face & bowl lathering, building up a lather with a my damp boar brush gives great results adding water to the tips of the brush to get the lather to the consistency I prefer.

    A close comfortable silky smooth shave to finish my shaving week off with no errors to report.

    Finishing the shave off with a few small dollops of Bulldog Original Moisturiser.

    My face is feeling smooth, & smelling divine.;)

    Keep safe, and enjoy your day ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

    We are all guilty of the same thing Joe. Having too much of a variety isn't always a good thing.

    1 Days growth

    Day 5 with the Permasharp… OK still

    Needed to shave today because I was off to get a haircut and take my wife for coffee

    Sill sticking with the December 30 Day Focus setup…..

    I must say I do feel like a change, but I can sense the continuing learning curve by sticking to one razor.

    Have a great day one and all

    Shield dual comb stainless steel razor.
    Gillette Wilkinson Sword blade.
    Delrin synthetic brush.
    Soap Commander Honor shave soap.
    Timeless Razor shave bowl.
    American Tobacco by Andy Hilfiger cologne.

    Yesterday and today's shaves.

    Awesome shaves. I love a dual comb razor. I normally do the first pass with the open comb and the last two with the solid bar.....smooth.

    Happy Thursday everyone.
