Episode II in the Adventures of Max Headroom being TAR'd and FEATHER'd

Short on time called a fast shave.
Proraso menthol cream smeared wonderfully on the ugly mug.
Whipped into a lathery frenzy by a wet synth.
That supposedly sharp blade with those dastardly glue dots that always seems best for me on (2).
The hefty 1/3 lb. (that is about 150 grams... for those outside Murica) handywork of that Razor Master Craftsman and Designer, one Tom White
@twhite. Dialed down to ONE as if I was afreard of it.
I found it challenging to hold on 'best angle' on long strokes, so I went with the intuitive method and applied pressure. Just enough of that to chafe up a patch that the alum would later show the fallacy of.
Went for the buffing action. Obviously the overlapping nature of this technique actually produced more passes than the 3.5 as recorded by the 'Official Re-lather Count'. I was able to find smooth cutting through the fine tune of every stroke, I even included ATG work on the lower neck that I only do selectively.
End result, another wonderful shave. So who says you can only get a close shave with an aggressive tool? Not me, you just shave a little different.
For sure, this tool does the trick at BOTH ends of the spectrum. The heft helps on the dial-down, not so opened up.
I especially love the cap design. Thin, with a curvature similar to a Gillette New, and a similar positive full curve blade clamping.
Finished up with Proraso go go juice.
Stay tuned......
