  8. Great shave Andrew! That is the most aggressive shavette as far as I am concerned. I never tried the Fromm Hairshapers, but I have used the Personnas for my Dovo Shavette. Personna Hairshapers are sharper and smoother than the Fromms. Have you tried the Personna hairshaper in that Weck? One last thing, I love the Veg. and Arko!

  12. yes, I have used the Personna blades, but I prefer the Fromm blades in this razor. I can get more shaves from the Fromm blades, as they seem last longer.
    I also agree with you, this razor is very aggressive! I think that’s why I love it so much. If your technique is off, it will let you know!

    I’m pretty much an exclusive Arko user! I do you other soaps/creams, but not often.
    As far as the Veg. goes, this is the 1st bottle of it I have ever used. I just picked it up a week or so ago. I stayed away from it, because I know a lot of people don’t care for it. I sure wish I would have picked some up years ago, as I really enjoy it. The other evening, my wife asked “what’s the new scent”? She said, she likes the way it smells too!
  13. Thank you Jeff. I believe the grain is slightly noticeable.
  14. Thank you Clint. It is a very nice razor. I get wonderful shaves with it.
  15. Wow, that is an impressive razor, when did you acquire it?

    It is NOS and I bought about 6 months ago. I don't think it will soften up, it does not feel like a new boar but more like a 'best badger'. Maybe I should research how to make the gel tips and see if I that improves it.
  16. Thanks, Joe. It's already in the garbage can.

  17. Very nice shave Andrew. I have yet to try the Veg. Perhaps one day.

  18. Big-name shave for Friday: Tabac, M&F and Iwasaki 6/8. An excellent shave, had some time so even did the extra WTG pass to finish it off. Today's juice is Dior Bois d'Argent.
