That's the same approach I try to take. I guess with the Rex I thought I had found the sweet spot but as it turns out the sweet spot was a much steeper angle.

Wow!!! Just gorgeous Jim

Happy Hump Day! The "Soap Destroyer" continues on its seek and destroy mission whipping up a mountain of rich slick lather. Three passes with touch ups ended in another drama free BBS. A splash of Fine Lavender and I think I will go into the office for at least a half day. I hope everyone has a great Wednesday.

Yeah, I generally start off very shallow and adjust from there. I'm really fighting muscle memory going as steep as I'm going now.

Thanks, Clint!

Wonderful shave and picture, Clint! Half day sounds pretty good. Fourteen hours Monday, twelve yesterday and scheduled for twelve today. More money, more shave gear.

Thank you Jim. That is some serious hours. I am going in to knock out a few things and will work remotely this afternoon. At least that is my plan.

Another first rate Vetiver shave Pierpaolo. Vetiver is one of my favorite scents.

Wow, that’s nice!

Great shave, Jim! You’ve really been showing that Rocnel some love! Superb photography, as usual!

Awesome shave! CF Lime cream is a wonderful product! Amazingly understated, yet elegant kit! I always enjoy your posts, Keith!

Thanks, Keith! It’s working well for me. My son who bought it for me for Father’s Day never expected me to keep it.

Nice!!!

@clint64
Me too, I love the vetiver.
The greek is a good one.
Very natural, not muddy.

Thanks, Jeff!
The Rocnel Elite is the latest addition to the collection. Today's shave was only its third use. I'll go one more before I make a switch.
