Anytime Doug. Maybe the alumilite resin used in the handles has something to do with feel in hand, just feels different to my fingers. Nice high luster shine over my other beehives as well.

Karve CB “C” & Gillette SP 7 O’Clock (7-8??) Semogue #1305 Boar Alvarez Gomez Agua De Colonia Concentrada shave cream Humphreys Alcoholado Maravilla Nivea Vitalizing A/S lotion Stetson Cooling A/S splash 3rd shave and 1st set up with the C plate. Very nice and comfy shave but hardly any blade feel though it cut the whiskers. It was a 3 pass plus some touch ups so it took a bit to get a BBS finish. Very, very little irritation along the neck and jawline but, the splashes helped it subside within 10-15 mins. Though a good shave, not as good and efficient as with the D plate. I think the C stays in the box, permanently. Have a great evening and fabulous shaves Gents...
