    eBarberShop injector razor
    Schick blade
    Cade SS
    SRE synthetic brush
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Pino Silvestre EDT

    The eBarberShop injector is a nice mild shaver. I don't normally use Schick blades but it worked well here and a great shave was had. Now go enjoy your day folks.

    For some reason I love the look of a silver blade in a back razor. great contrast!

    SOTD 2/5

    Merkur 34C / Shark Super Chrome(3)
    Satin Tip The Purest
    Blades Grimm Smolder

    3rd and final shave with the shark. first pass WTG was a little more tuggy then I like. two more passes XTG left me with a DFS no touch-up needed. I find that there is one particular spot on my neck just below my jaw where I cant get as close as I would like. If i take too many passes at it I get some irritation and if I go ATG I get ingrown hairs. Maybe pulling the skin up onto my jaw would work IDK. Have a great day and wishing you all amazing shaves!

    My first shave with the Simplex 7. It shows a large blade gap and has moderate aggressiveness. It gives a very good shave overall.

    How do you like the scent on that Dr. Jon's Classic Soap? I heard it's his version of a classic barbershop scent.

    That's good that the angle is not the problem. I hope things work out so you can have good comfortable DE shaves.
