    Shaves 58-46 and 59-47. With the Bunny V2.2 and a Personna 74 loaded. At 47 shaves the Personna 74 is starting to slow down but I'm confident it will make it to 50 shaves.

    Razor : Yaqi Excalibur 50mm AC type with a Milano 316 SSP handle- Mfg 2021>, tame mid range. Simple clamping system + small head parts( I assemble above a wash cloth) makes for a nimble razor to work the beard area. I get great results from my Excalibur and it is pretty much in permanent rotation in my large rotation of razors. Had a stellar comfortable close shave this morning with no issues.
    Blade : Schick proline p30- sharp and smooth with reasonable longevity. excellent combination with the Excalibur it seems.
    Soap : Ach Brito Lavanda, nice mild lavender with a slight mint scent + excellent lather qualities.
    Brush : Yaqi "Chianti's" 24mm synthetic, excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, Gentle splay scrubber + excellent lather painter. Nice brush to work the beard.
    Pre shave : (Dedicated Cashmere synthetic)Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser with a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep : Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave : Ach Brito Lavanda with witch hazel + a dollop of CeraVe moisturizing lotion(scentless).
    Results : [​IMG] or CCS,DFS,BBS + no irritation + no weepers=[​IMG] Had a close stellar comfortable shave this morning with my Yaqi Excalibur 50mm AC type with a Schick proline blade.
