What a shave.....
And a puzzle too.
Hot water wash after shower
Parker silvertip
Stirling Black Ice
Gillette tech stealthed out
Treet carbon steel (1)
Stirling witch hazel and aloe aftershave
Now, I had planned to use a new instrument(shavette), but it came with a tuck of carbon steel treet blades. I called an audible, figuring "how can i deem the new instrument good or bad, without ever trying the blade?". So I loaded one of these blades into a very mild reliable standard ole tech. I also color themed the shave to match(your welcome). Black blade, black razor, black handle brush, sooo, black ice could be my only choice.
Three Passes later, I'm smooth as silk and freezing(I'm still numb). Now the puzzle, Did the carbon steel blade perform so great, or did my technique just catch the baby? Why haven't I ever heard of using carbon steel blades, nobody here prefers them?
Wow what a perfect shave.
Hope y'all did as well, or better.
