Fist shave of the year. So I opted for all of my newest tools.
Razor: Black Hawk newly acquired today from
@Herm2502
Blade:Feather Pro
Brush:
@GarnerPW
Soap: Jeeves gift from
@Drygulch
AS: Tabac Lotion. From Wife
I had a wonderful shave today. I normally shave later in the day. When my wife texted me that I received my razor, game on.
I was doing a bit of reading on the Black Hawk. People were saying it is a mild razor. So I decided to forgo the Feather Guard and go straight to the Pro. Great decision.
As this is the first New razor that I have that takes these blades. I was a bit concerned about the added width of the razor. This is a light razor. So I found that the long handle came in nicely. Using no pressure I found the angle right away. Proceeding to do my standard 3 pass shave. I found that it feels like a mild razor. But by no means in my opinion is it. I find later Schick to be mild. I would compare this to a Schick G for Blade feel. But the efficiency is better than that.
I think that a few more shaves on the Blade and this will be a sweet shaving razor. It is perfect for a 1 or 2 day beard.
If somebody is thinking about getting one. It is worth a punt, especially for the price.
Happy New Year All.
