Crazy busy week....busy is good, no complaints, just limits time to keep up.
Quick follow up of my week's shaves. All were 2.5 pass shaves, 2 passes for the cheeks, then buffing and/or touch up for the lower neck. Results ranged from DFS+ to BBS. No issues with irritation or nicks/cuts. Products were all Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements PreShave Tube 2.0 or Proraso PS Red, PAA shave soaps and matching aftershave/cologne, and PAA's ASB, called Star Jelly. The razors: Rex Ambassador w/Gillette Silver Blue, Feather Artist Club DX (Kamisori style) w/Schick ProLine, J3Customs Kamisori, Drew Dick Damascus Steel w/Kirinite scales. Shaved with the J3Customs twice, it is awesomely smooth right now. The Drew Dick may need it's first 12k hone touch up since I've received it (Oct '19)....while it passes gssixgun's 'hair topping' test easily....it is shaving a little less smooth than usual. I'll try it on a very intensive round on the pasted leather strops first....and go from there after another shave.
Today's shave still fresh in memory....the Rex Ambassador was set a nudge past 6, against the wide open stop. WTG, then 2 legs of an X on the neck, BBS result.
Hope everyone has a Fantastic Valentine's Day and weekend!. Traveling again for another event in a couple hours.....wifey and I celebrated Valentine's yesterday.
