ATT G1 razor GEM stainless steel blade Burma Shave Boar brush Soap Mashup in the HIS shaving bowl Old Spice aftershave I decided to use the V1 plate on the right and the V2 plate on the left side of my face this morning. The V1 plate produced a nice comfortable shave with very little blade feel. The V2 plate has more blade feel, but not overly much, and ended up giving a slightly closer shave. All in all I find it is a great razor regardless of the plate. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
Fri 5th March RR 400. SE-Plissoft noir P & B Pall Mall RR Hawk V3-OC plate Kai CT Mild-Pink [ 3 ] Floid Vigoroso A/S Lotion. Liking the way the V3-OC Shaves with the Kai Pink. Nice relaxed Shave attained with ease, and the overall finish not too Shabby.
Friday Shave Razor: Fuzzy Catcher Blade: Gem CS Brush: JR154 Soap: AOS Sandalwood cream Balm: APS Sandalwood At the urging of Fuzzy I designed a Lather Catcher to be 3D printed. So today I whipped this up. I printed it when I got home. It took 1-1/2 hours to print. Not knowing what to expect from the shave. I was pleasantly surprised by a nice middle of the road aggression on this. I did a 3 pass shave with a DFS result. I am sure I could get even better results if I used it several times in a row. There are just a few tweaks I want to make. But it is good to go. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

That is so pure evil you've out eviled yourself. Not to be a bad influence but if you plan to use a wedge blade in that might as well see if you can 3rd print a blade stropper next.

Schick E3, Vintage Schick blade, shave 3 Used a light hand today and as such the shave was much gentler and also not as close as when I shave like honey badger. Still a BBS finish achieved.

I had a fun shave this morning with a new acquisition. I accidentally bid higher than intended but I'm not disappointed in my new to me Star "Test Outfit" razor.
