3 pass DFS+. Up today was Saponificio Varesino v4.3 FA soap with the Heritage Collection Ever Ready badger. Excellence from both, supremely slick and full lather, with a pleasant but slightly subdued Fougère aroma. I'm also all about residual slickness between swipes, and SV 4.3 has that covered handily. New razor, new blade from OneBlade's 14 day trial received yesterday. The head glide of the Hybrid OneBlade is much nicer than the Core (which feels plasticky, like one a 4-5 blade cartridge thingy). The Hybrid is a very easy shaver, quite maneuverable, requires a little pressure (better applied towards the top of the head). Mindlessly whipped the Hybrid all around for a WTG/XTG and ATG 3 passer. Could have called this shave at the second pass, it was that nice. But....wanted to see how the ATG pass would turn out. ATG....surprisingly efficient, getting me nearly a BBS shave very little blade feel, still no nicks or irritation at all. Finished up with the PAA Star Jelly, and the Boss Orange EdT- a citrusy sweet & pleasant fragrance, but fades quickly.
Over the next week of shaves I'm comparing several modern SE shavers....looking for a travel razor that's easy/fun to use, but still a DFS+/BBS capable shaver (in 2 passes). No carts or electric for travel. Also not wanting to take any of my vintage razors, nor my straights/kamis just yet. The OneBlade Hybrid could easily fit this role, but still want to try a couple others. The Supply Co Single Edge USPS should deliver today, and the Occam's Razor O.R.E.N. Enhanced Nano should arrive tomorrow. More to come!
I'm traveling later this afternoon for a working weekend south of Houston. Will be following along...little time for posting Sat/Sun shaves.
Have a great Friday and weekend everyone!
